FormscanBy Tom Weekes - HAPPY HENRY has already won twice this year and holds obvious claims in this open looking handicap. A dual winner, the selection has been running consistently well recently and has form on soft ground. Stablemate Steel Magnolia has a similar profile and has also won twice at this distance. She had met trouble in-running behind the selection at Bellewstown in July and, being a soft-ground winner, should also compete from her rating. Both Harry’s Hill and Mary Shoelaces are each three-time course-and-distance winners and while they have solid claims on best form, wouldn’t want the ground to become too soft.
