THE DALEY EXPRESS was caught close home over track and trip a fortnight ago but any further progress should see Ed McMahon’s charge off the mark and he’s preferred to the more unexposed types. Hathfa drops back to the minimum trip for the first time having disappointed over 7f on her latest start while Her Terms has gone the wrong way since finishing runner-up at York in September. Speed Freak was still beaten four lengths when second at Lingfield in July and has her first start since.
