Verdict
ALMATY EXPRESS has been threatening to get his head back in front and found only one too good here on Thursday. Bidding for his 18th victory at this track, he gets another chance as he should confirm latest running with Rightcar. The latter also finished behind Littlecote Lady at Kempton in February, while Heidi's Delight missed most of last year, though will have come on for her recent reappearance at Southwell. The veteran Doctor Hilary is back on a winning mark and posted a better effort when runner-up here last time but One Last Dream has struggled since winning his maiden at Chepstow in August.
