A handicap that really won't take much winning but a very tentative vote goes to FOXTROT ALPHA ahead of Feet Of Fury and Djalalabad. The selection will have to carry top weight to victory if she is to win but with so many of her rivals out of form it is a possibility. Peter Winkworth doesn't have many runners here at Yarmouth but his daughter of Desert Prince has a live chance if reproducing her latest effort. She stayed on to be fourth after being keen early doors in a better race than this but if she settles today she will go close. Feet Of Fury comes from a stable that have winners at this track. His latest run can be excused as the trip was a bit taxing. The return to eight furlongs will help and if in the mood can go close. Djalalabad is probably the most interesting horse in field from her current mark. He is a real quirky character and is hard to catch right but a market check is advised. Yakama and Abu Dubai are others to note in a very tricky race but Foxtrot Alpha gets the nod.
