SWEET PROMISE had a fine first campaign, scoring here and at Doncaster. Her four runs this season have been at a higher level and this should prove much more suitable. Habit Rouge is rapidly improving and made all for an impressive victory at Newcastle to complete an all-weather double. A mark of 90 looks fair as there should be plenty more to come. Yes My Boy won his opening races at Newcastle and Lingfield and has continued to run well in similar handicaps to this while Morisco has competed in better company since landing a Newbury handicap at this level in June. Fox Power has struggled in Turf handicaps after running well here in the spring.
