Verdict
Harbour Law was second on his debut in an ordinary all-weather maiden at Lingfield last month but Forth Bridge was well beaten when third at Nottingham. Afnaan was very green when disappointing over a mile at Lingfield in November but there is nothing in his pedigree to suggest he'll stay this far. REAL DOMINION showed promise last season and was beaten under two lengths over 1m3f in a handicap at Kempton on his reappearance. This looks a good opportunity to get off the mark, though the New Approach colt Kesselring would not need to be anything special to play a part.
