Windforpower is usually thereabouts but both wins to date have come in plating company and HAZZA THE JAZZA is less exposed. Richard Guest's charge bids for a hat-trick after following up his C&D win with victory at Kempton last week and there should be more to come from him. An apprentice negates a large part of a penalty so he should confirm earlier running at this track with Loulou Vuitton. Both Groove On and La Luz Del Sol have scope for improvement on their handicap debuts and could prove bigger threats.
