Yes My Boy^p⁶⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 92

Sweet Promise^t¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: W Buick| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 89| CD

10/1

C&D winner. 9/1, not seen to best effect when fifth of 6 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 14 days ago, left poorly placed and no extra late on over longer trip. This more suitable.

Habit Rouge²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Stefano Cherchi⁽⁵⁾| T: M Botti| OR: 90

3/1

Has looked useful when winning 1m AW maiden/novice events this autumn. Lacks experience for a race of this nature but there's surely more to come.

Form: 411

Forecasts

Habit Rouge (3/1), Yes My Boy (7/2), Fox Power (7/2), Morisco (8/1), Sweet Promise (10/1), Kryptos (14/1), Kaser (14/1), Lawn Ranger (22/1), Home Before Dusk (22/1), Furzig (25/1), Society Red (40/1), Brains (50/1), Poet's Dawn (66/1)

A useful handicap in which a chance is taken on FOX POWER who has a good record at this venue and is well handicapped on his peak form. Yes My Boy returns to AW for the first time since his novice wins on his first 2 starts and he's interesting from a good draw. The lightly-raced Habit Rouge is another intriguing contender.
