In depth

Verdict

Blow Your Horn was engaged in the 5.25 at Doncaster yesterday. Greengage has five career victories to her credit, two here and three on the Tapeta at Newcastle, though never from a mark this high. Dream With Me makes his track debut and hasn't run since runner-up in a Windsor handicap in October while Arabescato is a Lingfield specialist having gained all of his three victories on that track. CHAIRMAN POWER has only had five starts, producing easily his best race to date over 1m6f here in November when narrowly beaten. He's the type to improve and could be a blot on the handicap.
