Verdict
Thunderclap won at Pontefract back in October and returns to action along with stablemate Vino Victrix. Jasmine Joy is fitted with a tongue-tie on her reappearance while Dubai Horizon last raced in February but hasn’t won since 2018. Spring Glow landed a double here last autumn and will be sharper for a recent comeback but HEART OF SOUL (NAP) escapes a penalty for winning an apprentices’ race at Hamilton. Harry Davies takes over the reins today and the latter’s 7lb allowance further helps his cause.
