Verdict

Having caught the eye on his previous start, DUE FOR HENRY was seen to much better effect but still credited with an improved showing when opening his account from the front at Windsor 11 days ago. Likely to do better still, he looks a big player under a penalty. Fellow low-mileage improver Lone Piper rates the chief threat ahead of Whathappensinvegas.

  1. DUE TO HENRY
