Haydock

Today, May 31, 2025FlatClass 21m3f

This is wide open but it could pay to side with the Gosdens' lightly-raced 4-y-o SHADER who looked a very good prospect when bagging a pair of AW novices last September and is open to plenty of progress on his first go in handicap company. The progressive Steel Tiger heads the list of dangers, although Fox Journey starts out for Kevin Ryan on a handy-looking mark and must enter calculations, while Naqeeb, Stressfree and Lieber Power all need factoring into this cracking handicap too.

    Progressive Shamardal gelding bagged 1m4f novices at Southwell and Kempton last September. Gelded thereafter and he appeals as the sort to do well in handicaps in 2025 for top yard. Interesting prospect.

    Scored twice around 1m4f in 2024 and resumed from 7 months off with a solid fifth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 20 days ago. Shouldn't be ruled out with few miles still on the clock.

    A dual winner in 2024 and he got back on track when third of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good to firm) 28 days ago. That form is working out well so he's very much one to consider eased 1 lb.
