J: Jack Mitchell

T: James Horton

Lightly raced; gelded and in a first-time visor when a front-running third at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm); had no excuses in that 4.25l defeat but it's something to build on.

T: James Horton

Out of the frame in four starts, failing to run up to market expectations on handicap debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) seven weeks ago; gelded since and a visor is now given a go; interesting to see if his backers return.

J: Jack Mitchell

T: James Horton

His standout effort at Chelmsford in November (7f) came in a race that hasn't worked out; should appreciate the step up in trip but not obviously well treated for his handicap debut.

J: George Wood

T: James Horton

Well beaten on debut but last month's Chelmsford sixth (7f; made the running; stablemate Hamish Leek over 6l behind him) was better; open to further progress but the widest stall isn't ideal.

100-1 and well beaten on last month's Salisbury debut (1m); not easily recommended; one of two runners for James Horton.
