Verdict
WAQAAS looks sure to go close on his second at Haydock. He found only Dream Of Dreams, subsequently placed in a Group 2 contest, too good on that occasion and the third-placed horse has won since. Act Of Freedom is expected to improve but needs to if he’s to figure. Newcomers Double Touch and Third Order may prove better than their respective stablemates Reinstorm and Used To Be and George Reme is a half-brother to the useful You’re Fired and could also figure.
