Doha has plenty of potential

Amancio can follow up
Haydock Nap - 16:55 - Back Doha
Doha is bred in the purple - fourth foal out of top-class Treve - and she showed marked improvement when opening her account over a mile at Windsor in October last season.
She scored by nine lengths that day and the form has been franked since. An opening mark of 82 could very much underestimate her now handicapping, particularly now moving back up to a mile and a quarter, and she rates a strong bet.

Haydock Next Best - 17:25 - Back Amancio
Amancio was starting to look exposed, but he showed improved form when opening his account over a mile at this course last month.
That was his first encounter with heavy ground, and he clearly relished it, settling better than previously and staying on well at the finish. He is 5 lb higher now, but on that running he is well worth a try at this longer trip, and conditions will be in his favour.
