Gelded and much improved when winning 9-runner minor event at Pontefract (6f, heavy) 53 days ago. Well on top at the finish there so very much one to consider on his handicap debut.

Got off the mark in 7-runner minor event at Lingfield (6f, AW) in January on final run for Andrew Balding. Much respected for his new handler after a break.

Took a big step forward on his turf debut when winning 6-runner minor event at Catterick (5f, soft) 31 days ago by neck from Obligatory. Can go well again back up to 6f on his handicap debut.

Fair form shown when landing the odds in 6-runner maiden at Catterick (6f, good) 25 days ago. One to consider now going into handicaps.

Farhh colt who bagged 7-runner maiden at Windsor (6f, good to soft) 26 days ago. Looks to have more to offer so he's a player on his handicap debut.

Quickly resumed winning ways in 10-runner handicap at Beverley (5f, good, 9/4) 19 days ago. Well on top at the finish there so not taken lightly despite a 7 lb rise.

In excellent form without winning until coming in last of 5 in maiden at Musselburgh (5f, good) 22 days ago. Yard has a good record in this so worth another chance on his first go in handicap company.

Gelded/off 10 months before posting a creditable fifth of 7 in minor event at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Can take a step forward on his handicap debut, especially with this return to 6f a plus.

16:10 Haydock - 25 May 2024 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

This is ultra competitive but the vote goes to James Tate's Windsor maiden scorer THE AMAZON who looks to have got in lightly for his first venture into handicap company. Fellow Windsor winner Charlie Mason is also weighted to go well and heads a long list of dangers with Brummell, Close Connection, Moyola and Nariko all worthy of respect too.
