Verdict

Early three-year-old handicaps are always hard to get a handle on and this one is now different. ALBAN’S DREAM looks a speedy sort and worth try back at 5f having been caught close home the last twice. Pink Flamingo is another who has shown good speed in her races but she does have to give weight away to the entire field and could be vulnerable to those lower down the weights. Hanakotoba has been running consistently well of late and did score of just a 2lb lower mark at Kempton late last year. Not many of the others make much appeal but Thegreyvtrain should appreciate a return to racing against her own age group with her best form having come at 5f.
  1. Alban's Dream
  2. Hanakotoba
  3. Pink Flamingo
