J: Mr Henry Callan

T: Michael & David Easterby

Stuck his neck in front in the final strides over C&D (good) on seasonal debut, ending a three-year losing spell; still well handicapped on peak form and commands respect under very promising young amateur Henry Callan, who has built up an impressive strike-rate.

No wins since 2023 and although he was running well when last seen, that was late last year; probably one to watch unless backed.
