Thorn Falcon (W) KAB Maiden Derby Finalists Trap 1 Amazing Wink Owner: Mr Ivor Lacey Trainer: Richard Rees, Hove Incredibly, this powerful son of Cable Bay is still a maiden despite lining up in a second Category One final on just his seventh UK start. Joined the Richard Rees kennel after showcasing his ability in Ireland known as Droopys Hamish, reached the 2020 Irish Laurels final at Cork for handler John Linehan. Finished runner-up to Signet Ace in the £10,000 Ladbrokes Winter Derby at Monmore after a number of strong-running performances over the 480m trip. Better suited to the stiff 500m at Towcester, will be flying home off the last bend. KAB Maiden Derby Finalists Trap 2 Tommys Ranger Owner: Mr Manuel Garcia Trainer: Lee Field, Monmore Finalist with the least amount of experience, but ability was clear very early on following a batch of smart qualification trials over the 500m trip here. Member of a smart litter bred by Esther O’Brien in Limerick and certainly open to plenty of improvement. This son of 2017 Irish Derby champion Good News is blessed with lively early pace and almost belied huge odds in his semi-final after leading at the first bend.
