AANNA HENEEIH ran out a cosy winner on his racecourse debut at Lingfield last month. The form looks solid enough with a subsequent winner back in third and Ed Dunlop's charge can make a winning handicap debut here. However, there are plenty of others with claims including the Richard Hannon pair Silverware and My Vindication, while Newbury winner Enthusing steps up in trip for the first time on his reappearance and is not without a chance. The Holyman scored on his racecourse debut at Lingfield in October and is another to note along with fellow Polytrack winner Romantic Wish.
