    Race Analysis

    DIGUB (3) secured an impressive 2. 25L victory coming home clear of his seven rivals attempting a 1m novice race at Southwell last month. Taken to complete a double where stepping up in distance is expected to suit making handicap debut. With cheekpieces applied for the first time HINCHINBROOKE (9) looks a big threat seeking his first win following a 2. 75L second over 1m3f at Kempton. SHIMMERING SPIN (2) warrants close consideration raised in journey following a 12L fifth over 1m at Newcastle. Racing in a hood for the first time ALMEKAREM (7) is another with claims on the back of a 5L sixth tackling 1m2f at Newcastle.
