Donoma emerged as the leading candidate for the Premio Regina Elena when easily winning Premio Ceprano, a conditions race, on Sunday at Capannelle. Her jockey Endo Botti sent the BEAT HOLLOW filly into the lead from the start, and opened up a three lengths advantage round the turn. Donoma accelerated again approaching the final furlong, to win by five lengths from the in form Penthouse Serenade (Val Royal). Donoma’s time was 1.38.5 on ground rated good to soft, and her last half mile was privately clocked in less than 47 seconds. “She was more aggressive than usual and I decided to let her run free. She has improved since last year and this is a promising comeback on the way to the Premio Regina Elena,” said jockey Endo Botti. Donoma will probably have another run before the Classic, scheduled for Sunday, 13th May.
