Donna's Double and Storm Nelson won at Ayr on Monday. Ryan Mania has won on his last eight completed rides. Sandy Thomson has made an electric start to 2023 and won with both horses sent to the Ayrside track. Thomson could aim to win a second Veterans' Final at Sandown on Saturday with Dingo Dollar. He also has options at Warwick next week.
