Heart Of Soul^p¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 8-12| J: Harry Davies⁽⁷⁾| T: Ian Williams| OR: 79| D

13/2

4/1, ran up to best when winning 14-runner apprentice handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Gets to race off the same mark with useful 7 lb claimer on board. Major player.

Form: 75-0441

Forecasts

Jasmine Joy (4/1), Spring Glow (9/2), Dubai Horizon (6/1), Heart Of Soul (13/2), Thunderclap (15/2), Year Of The Dragon (8/1), Eagle Court (9/1), Vino Victrix (12/1), Sky Power (14/1), Deal A Dollar (20/1)

HEART OF SOUL had dropped below his last winning rating and justified strong market support when scoring at Hamilton 10 days ago, so he is taken to follow up off the same mark with Harry Davies also taking off a valuable 7 lb. Spring Glow could be the main danger having won here on her last 2 starts in 2021, ahead of Jasmine Joy who ran well on her return to action last year and remains open to progress.
