DOMINO DARLING (William Haggas)
She's a Golden Horn filly who won first time out at Doncaster in October. She won extremely nicely and comfortably in the end. It looked a strong race seeing them all in the paddock and down at the start.
She didn't have a smack at all, in typical William Haggas style, and had a really nice way about her.
ENGLISH KING (Ed Walker)
I was very fortunate to sit on him when winning second time out up at Newcastle. He was an extremely impressive winner of a maiden and I barely had to take him off the bridle.
He looks like he's going to be a really nice horse - possibly a Derby horse - he's by Camelot, has a really nice way about him and also showed plenty of class when winning.
MONICA SHERIFF (William Haggas)
She won a string of races and ended up winning a Group Three in France on her last run of the season. She looks like a big improver, is seemingly going to stay all day and I'm really looking forward to seeing her this year as I expect her to have matured even more over the winter.
THREAT (Richard Hannon)
He'd be the most exposed horse on my list, showing what he could do by winning the Doncaster and backing up at Doncaster as well. He was an extremely nice two-year-old and has done well over the winter physically.
He'll be a force to be reckoned with in the big three-year-old races when they do come around.
VINTAGE RASCAL (Tom Ward)
He won a Windsor maiden at the back end of the year and was Tom's first winner as a trainer. He was quite impressive as we weren't quite sure what to make of him beforehand - we knew he was nice - but he showed up really well that day and his work has been great.
His career wasn't going to be as good as it could be as a two-year-old so I'm really looking forward to seeing what he could be as a three and four-year-old.
