The handicapper has evidently had a rethink regarding Dragon Glory and this is a big chance for his young apprentice to gain some valuable experience but QUEEN OF ROMFORD hails from a stable that are doing well with their juveniles and she is better than her recent effort at Chelmsford implies. Paddy Brunty was a late foal so there’s a chance that he may still be capable of improvement while Asfour is probably the pick of the Richard Hannon pair. The colt demonstrated some promise at Newbury on debut but his two subsequent runs have been underwhelming.
