Verdict
Hiamovi has a high draw to contend with but has the best recent form and so can beat the likes of Tashyra, Speedy Rossini and Zantero. Hiamovi did us a favour when popping in at odds of 7-1 in Banded company here eight days ago, and although Robert Cowell's inmate is now saddled with topweight, in truth he does not have much more to do, apart from having to contend with a high draw. His recent success was not a complete surprise after his improved effort at Southwell the time before when the blinkers were applied for the first time. With the aids on again to help, he should make a bold bid. Tashyra is another that seemed to improve with the help of the aids when fifth to Triple Two in nursery company here in December. If she can build on that then Andrew Balding's filly should have no difficulty picking up a small race. Speedy Rossini will surely find this trip on the short side, but should at least hold Zantero on their running at Southwell nine days ago. Nothing else makes much appeal, and Hiamovi is the suggestion
