Slightly off topic, but I think Our Havana is a fascinating runner in the supporting consolation Spring Mile at 1.50.

Won on the Turf off OR72 last April over 7f at Newmarket but, since reappearing from a near six-month break for a Tapeta campaign at Newcastle and Southwell, has seen its AW mark skyrocket from 75 to 96 and bolted in by 5.5l last time out.

It could be that the AW has been the making of it, BUT it might instead just be that it's simply improved and just happened to be racing on Tapeta when illustrating this.

Returns to Turf off 88 on Saturday.

The extra furlong is an unknown, but both the sire and dam won over a mile, so it must have some sort of chance of lasting home.

I wouldn't want to be laying double-digit odds about it, that's for sure.
