In depth

Verdict

HEADWAY has plenty going for him in this. The Haggas yard remains in good form, he has a decent draw and can boast the strongest form with a neck defeat at Newbury last month on his racecourse debut. Floss The Hoss was placed at Brighton recently but the remainder with racecourse experience have plenty of improving to do. Chai Chai is related to winners but fellow newcomer Yafta cost £280,000 as the first foal of a Listed sprinter and the Hannon colt is worth a second glance.
