This won’t take much winning and Hereia attracted significant market support last time at Plumpton only to depart at the fifth flight. Connections will be looking to recoup losses but Keith Dalgleish is mob-handed among today’s opposition and the four-year-old BREGUET BOY finished third in a higher grade here on his handicap debut. He should again beat stablemate Three Castles and Jorgie and looks the one to be on. The stable also run Balranald but he showed improved form here last time over 2m4f. Honda Fifty has shown ability in maiden company and may have most scope of the remainder.
