Begin The Luck (G)
[P]
Gained reward for a string of consistent efforts when resuming winning ways in this sphere at Wincanton (20.1f) in December. Shaped as if still in good form on 2 of his 3 subsequent runs and blinkers worn last time quickly replaced by usua…

Ultra Viers (G)
[PT]
Remains a maiden after 22 runs but in process of running creditably when falling last on return at Market Rasen in November. Below best after 2 weeks off when fifth at Lingfield (20f) later that month but likely type to bounce back returni…

Jack Doyen (G)

Made the frame all 4 starts last season but has struggled in handful of outings upon returning this winter. Others make much more appeal.
