Guineas weekend in Newmarket, but the feature race up in Northumberland is the prestigious Heart of All England Maiden Hunters Chase, with the race being the flagship event of the entire season at Hexham. A sizeable field this time around signals that luck in running could prove a valuable asset to success. Mickey Miller looks of interest now based with John Dawson, and he has probably been acquired with this race firmly in mind. Shantou Prince holds strong claims on the basis of his fine run behind the 2016 winner of this race (Ardea) at Wetherby in March, but the young horse on an upward curve is very much the impossibly named AGAINN DUL AGHAIDH. He has won his last two races in Point-to-Points in similar conditions and has an excellent rider booked to do the steering.
