Havana Gold gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including 6f-7f winner Bobby Joe Leg and 2-y-o 7f winner Mostashreqah. Dam 6f winner. Yard not renowned for winning with newcomers.

Modest form on sole start for Andre Fabre in France last summer and ran to a similar level when fifth of 6 in novice (7/1) at Wolverhampton on UK debut 5 days ago.

60,000 gns Havana Grey gelding. Stepped up on debut when second in Doncaster novice 12 months ago. Off since but split a pair of now-useful sorts that day and this is a weak novice.

Brother to smart winner up to 1m Delaware. Showed plenty when second in strong maiden at Chantilly in November 2024. Off since (sold from Andre Fabre 28,000 gns in February) but has been found a weak race on debut for new connections.

Showed a bit when second of 3 in novice at Newcastle though was no match for winner. Failed to stay upped in trip at Southwell since but this distance should be more suitable for this free-going type.

Poor winning hurdler for Jacqueline Coward so easy to oppose on belated Flat bow.

Forecasts

Zatsgood (4/9), Recency Bias (15/8), Finally Escaped (28/1), Porter's Song (28/1), Billyjoegold (66/1), Pop The Question (150/1)

Verdict

A potential match between ZATSGOOD and Recency Bias, who have both had their form franked since last seen, the former shading the vote.
