Second in a similar race over C&D in January (weak contest) but not matched it twice since; new headgear given a go but others appeal more.

T: John O’Shea

14-race maiden with a patchy overall record; tailed off at Chelmsford six weeks ago (tried in cheekpieces which are absent today) and others are far more convincing.

He ran his best race for this yard when second of eight, beaten 4l, in a similar event at Wolverhampton nine days ago; cheekpieces now turned to; others look more solid.

12-race maiden; well held in three runs for current stable; return to AW can help but he has something to prove after seven months off.
