Verdict
Flash Harriet has been thereabouts in this grade of late but is still seeking a first victory after 18 career starts. IT'S A NEW DAY has the champ on board as he makes his handicap debut and his latest fourth at Warwick was his best effort to date. He may well be good enough to concede weight all round, though Acapulco Bay must be a big threat having won over 1m4f on the Flat at Chepstow on Tuesday when Feeling was a distant last. Onedin Line has a fantastic pedigree and is lightly raced but doesn't appear to have inherited many of the family traits.
