Headford Tara is the class act here, dropping from A2 company where she's been competitive with an average performance of 67 — well clear of this handicap field. She draws the best box in the race at these conditions — trap 6 wins at 22.44% from 401 runs in Nottingham handicaps. Her speed figures are exceptional — the best in the field by a wide margin — and her early pace is electric with a bend rating of 89 that should see her blast to the front through the first turn. The fading concern is real over 500 metres, but the class gap between her and this field is so large that even fading, she should have enough in reserve. She's been mixing it at A2 level and drops into handicap company looking well treated.
