Hamilton

Showed plenty of promise when placed in maidens at Musselburgh and Chester on his first 2 starts. Had the worst of the draw when down the field in a novice at the latter track last time and can be expected to fare better now tackling a nursery.

In the frame on all 4 starts prior to putting that experience to good use when landing a 7-runner C&D maiden last month, beating Bellatina by 2¼ lengths. The runner-up went close in a nursery off a mark of 65 next time, so she must be respected now tackling one herself.

Showed improved form in first-time cheekpieces when landing a 5-runner soft-ground maiden at Ffos Las by 2¼ lengths from Defiant Dream. She faces very different conditions now tackling a nursery and needs to prove herself at least as effective away from soft going.

This 180,000 gns son of Dark Angel shaped with promise on his first two starts at Pontefract and Hamilton, but having been gelded, he looked a hard ride in a first-time visor when only seventh of eight in a nursery at Yarmouth last time. Cheekpieces are now applied in a bid to get him back on track.
