        In depth

        Verdict

        None of these inspire confidence all looking for their first win. HIGHEST AMBITION went close in a handicap over track and trip last month and gets a token vote on that form. Due A Win placed over 6f at Newcastle last time and Tantastic was narrowly beaten at the same track in November while Light Of Thunder debuts for new connections and has yet to race in a sprint.
