Homestead Anna is the selection on the strength of the best stayer credentials in the race. She won at Doncaster over 890m (60.21) — a trip of nearly quarter of a mile that few greyhounds tackle — and placed at Open Race level over 659m here at Yarmouth (41.01). Her S1 win confirms she handles stayer grades. Now dropping from OR to S2 is a meaningful grade concession in her favour. Composite of 39 and average performance 74 are the best figures among the horses with confirmed 659m form. Track suitability of 43 is the second highest in the field. Trainer M P Brown (who also runs Azzas Angel) knows this track inside out. T6 at marathon distance is typically the best draw — the outside lane gives a clear run on the long Yarmouth bends. The reservation is that her last two Yarmouth OR 659m runs were fifth and sixth, suggesting form has dipped from her best; hence Speculative rather than stronger confidence.
