Verdict

HERO OF THE HOUR went up 7lb for his first success in January and overcame trouble in-running to complete a double last month. He's only gone up 3lb and a hat-trick beckons. Prince Of Abington did better than expected in a claimer last week while Havana Notion has only had five starts and has been narrowly beaten the last twice. The latter can improve and has Jamie Powell's claim to aid his cause but Collective Power, despite being consistent, has only ever won over the minimum.
