Owen Burrows had a good chance of landing the first race on the card and ALFARQAD is another with leading claims. He was third over 7f at Newbury on last month’s debut and that looks stronger form than Herdwick’s close-up fourth over track and trip on his recent introduction. Sheriff and Black Lotus look other likely improvers but Conversant has shown little so far while stablemates Humbolt Current and Willie John are preferred to Spring Praise and Amplification of the newcomers.
