WHOSINTERVIEWINWHO left previous efforts behind when runner-up at Galway last month and with further progress in the pipeline, Andrew Slattery's colt can continue his yard's run of good form and get off the mark. Heading up the dangers is Sovreigns Joy, who emerged as the best horse at the weights when finding one too strong at Leopardstown recently, with Letmeentertainyou rounding off the shortlist.

13:25 Haydock Park (R1) 7f212y C1 Group 3 9 runners

Analyst Verdict 1-2-3

NEEDLE MATCH found the 2000 Guineas coming too soon in his development but he got his career firmly back on track with an eye-catching second in a Group 3 at Leopardstown last month so he shades the vote over fellow 3-y-o Hankelow, who has had valid excuses since his excellent third in the French 2000 Guineas. Decent claims can also be made for Persica and The Lost King.

8 (2)

NEEDLE MATCH Tom Marquand

11/43.75

Maiden winner at Newbury (heavy) on sole start at 2 yrs. Much improved despite still needing the experience when fourth in the Greenham there on return but struggled in 2000 Guineas next time. However, firmly back on track after a break when second in Leopardstown Group 3 and can do better again. Position Prediction: 1

7 (5)

HANKELOW (IRE) Clifford Lee

6/17

Won 2 of his 3 starts at 2 yrs, notably a Newmarket Group 3 on final outing. Excellent third in the French 2000 Guineas at Longchamp on return. Well below that level on his next 2 starts but he had valid excuses, so he isn't one to write off for a yard that has won the last 2 renewals of this. Position Prediction: 2

4 (1)

PERSICA (IRE) James Doyle

4/15

Dual Group 3 winner in 2025 and just as good this season, getting back to winning ways in listed race at Newbury. Did enough to suggest he was still in form at York 2 weeks ago and, with conditions unlikely to be a problem, he's one for the shortlist. Position Prediction: 3
