Verdict

Hong Kong Harry still managed to win at Redcar on his debut despite missing the break and failing to get a clear run. This extra distance will suit but conceding so much weight to THOWQ may prove difficult. The latter found one too good when odds-on at Wolverhampton but can make amends on these terms and the Haggas filly also has the beating of Daniel Deronda at the weights. Basic Beauty is a half-sister to several winners and the Godolphin newcomer is preferred of the remainder.
