Whenthedealinsdone is a big gross horse so he will be fitter after his last run - his first ever on AW. He's drawn on the outside which is a negative, but if he can recapture any of his old form, he could take some catching.

05/03/24 – 1st 9/2 – Polisud – Micky Hammond – Newcastle
When I looked at this race in the programme book a while ago I thought it would be ideal for Polisud, but it's a little stronger than I expected. I'm still hopeful as he ran by far his best race for us over this CD last time. A little improvement from that would put him…

02/03/24 – 1st 10/1 – Highland Hunter – Fergal O’Brien – Newbury

01/03/24 – 1st 12/1 – Chipstead – Roger Teal – Lingfield
Chipstead, by contrast to Rosario, has a nice draw. Lingfield's six suits him better than the distance at Kempton. He led inside the last furlong there a fortnight ago but weakened. He'd probably hold on from a similar position around here.
