HEADFORD DUCHESS (3) was a narrow winner last time, jumping from this same trap to score by a head in a D5 over 238m at Harlow. In winning form and can measure up again. BOREEN PEARL (5) failed to come into contention last start at Harlow, but prior to that won by 1.75 lengths at Harlow (16.23) beating Maeda in a D5 on October 21. A forward showing wouldn’t surprise. BURGESS DOIREANN (4) doesn't win out of turn but looks close to breaking through. Finished in the minors last time when third (16.43) at Harlow making it back to back placings. Expected to feature. OLD FORT MICKMAC (6) looks an each-way chance.
