Cubana Habana made a very encouraging debut on this track, with Positive Force just behind, before a comfortable victory at Hamilton for which he’s penalised. JULIA AUGUSTA made a winning debut at Kempton in December so the lack of a run shouldn’t pose a problem. The third and fourth won four races between them subsequently so the form looks good enough for this. Enzos Angel never got close at Chelmsford but looks the type to do better but Give A Little Back was well beaten in a Newmarket handicap.
