9st 10lb

J: P J McDonald

T: Geoff Oldroyd

Produced an uncharacteristic below-par run at Newcastle (6f, AW) last month but he's had wind surgery since and was progressive on AW in the winter; twice finished close-up in big-field handicaps over this C&D (good/good to firm) last summer and there's every chance he will be bang there.

J: Jason Hart

T: Geoff Oldroyd

Rewarded strong market support in game fashion at Southwell on New Year's Day (6f); another solid effort when second of 14 over C&D two weeks later; 2lb higher today but there is a fair chance he hasn't reached his ceiling after just 12 starts.

J: P J McDonald

T: Geoff Oldroyd

Ran several good races in defeat last year and he recorded his first handicap success when seeing off a few reopposing rivals at Southwell on New Year's Day (heavily backed); raised 3lb but still on the up.

9st 3lb

J: P J McDonald

T: Geoff Oldroyd

Lightly raced 4yo who has been beaten less than 1l in competitive 6f handicaps on his last three starts, most recently third of 20 at York; he's kept on well each time and today's extra yardage could be right up his street; unraced on slow ground.

9st 4lb

J: P J McDonald

T: Geoff Oldroyd

Bred to be a smart sprinter and he's heading firmly in that direction; having only his sixth race when narrowly denied at Newcastle in June and he didn't get a clear run when a close fifth over C&D (good) the following month; will be fresher than most of today's rivals and his ceiling is yet to be established; serious contender.
