0-13 over hurdles and proving expensive to follow but he did run well for a long way returning from a break when just under 8l behind Shinji at Newton Abbot last month, ridden by Ben Sutton (as on all four starts for this yard); should be all the sharper for that and worth considering off 2lb lower. |
