Verdict
Ghadbbaan was engaged in the 4.25 Haydock yesterday. Emaraty Hero has been very consistent and stays this longer trip but is getting no respite from the handicapper. CHUVELO, a bumper and hurdles winner, got off the mark on the Flat at Carlisle earlier this month. The extra quarter-mile is probably a plus and he still looks well treated raised only 3lb. Spantik is almost guaranteed to run his race again and Malakahna looked to be running into form at Goodwood. Kincade won at Pontefract granted a stamina test while Lord Caprio and Hellenista are previous course winners.
