FAV
[TV]
A three-time course winner in the second half of 2025 who shaped well when third of 9 in handicap at this C&D 12 days ago, finishing well having suffered a poor run over 1f out. Expected to be bang there nudged up 1 lb.

Lessay (G)

Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 25/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 11 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort.
