SWING ALONE was aimed high on his racecourse debut in the Listed Chesham Stakes at Ascot. He acquitted himself well to finish a respectable fifth with today's rival Island Melody six length further back and Gay Kelleway's Celtic Swing colt can open his account. My Sharona is steadily improving though it was soft ground when she finished second at Yarmouth last week, while Lady Tycoon made a promising introduction when runner-up on the Polytrack and she could figure. Hamble and Always A Sinner are expected to improve and are others to note.
