P385 CJJFAX 385 Sat 4 Nov 23:18/21 DONCASTER REVIEW: SHAAMIT SWOOPS 1/7 Jockey Michael Hills, who landed a treble at the course on Friday, kept up his tremendous form with an easy win on Shaamit in the opening race. William Haggas' charge, backed in from 9/4 to 13/8 favourite, quickened nicely in the final furlong to take the BOC Sureflow Median Auction Maiden Stakes. In skbting home 3\L clear of Classy Chief, the colt has given Haggas something to look forward to for 1996. "Michael had to go for him a bit sooner than hj wanted as the far side were clear but hj did it well and he's going to bj a nice horse next year," hj said.

Hills was at his confident best as hj found a dream run up the inner rail when Capias drifted slightly outwards. And try as Capias might, hj was unable to get back on terms with the Michael Stoute-trained winner, who crossed the line a length and a quarter ahead. Paul Cole's Merit followed up his win at Edinburgh on Thursday in fine style when landing an off-course gamble in the Coalite Dragon Handicap. 5,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Chip Rjvw OthjrRjvw NavanRjvw Donc ResP385 CJEFAX 385 Sat 4 Nov 23:54/20 3/7 DONCASTJR RJVIJW: PRINCESS POWERS IN Capilano Princess justified her connections' decision to let her take her chance in the Wjmbley Nursery Handicap with a convincing win. She stayed on strongly to beat Double Diamond by 1}L, the pair clear of the third-placed Proud Monk. The filly was almost an absentee after spreading a plate in the morning as her trainer Derek Haydn-Jones explained: "She had heat in her leg and it was touch and go whjthjr we let her run. "I told Allan (Mackay) that if she didn't feel right at the post then hj was to pull her out," hj added.

He said: "She was always travelling well - unlike her three previous wins - and we actually got to the front a bit sooner than I'd wanted to. "But at least that meant that we had a clear run through as I noticed thjrj was a bit of bunching in behind. "She has improved with every run and this is the perfect send off for mj as I leave on Tuesday for a five month riding stint in Dubai," hj added.
