William Haggas maintains an excellent 29% strike-rate when sending horses to Hamilton. THE REVEREND (2) can well put his experience to good use now up significantly in trip. Produced a successful debut on soft ground at Newmarket (Rowley) toward the back end of last year and may return to winning ways having encountered a very smart prospect at Thirsk (1m) in July. Gosden-trained newcomer MILITARY ACADEMY (5) could prove the main threat. SUGAR ROAD (6) might be thereabouts if building on his third-placed finish attempting a Southwell novice event second time out. IZZARI (3) looks next best.
