Hayley is easily overlooked and Wolfheart's promising debut effort came back in 2011. However, the remainder all have claims. Hell Hath No Fury wasn't beaten far on her debut in an all-weather bumper over 1m5f and Guising finished well clear of the rest when third over a shorter trip at Wolverhampton earlier this month. AMBLESIDE showed a big improvement to finish second to Masaadr over today's distance at Lingfield recently. Given his yard won last year's renewal, the Cape Cross colt is expected to open his account today.
