Steadily progressive and he enhanced his already good strike rate when seeing off 5 rivals on 2½m Aintree reappearance last month. Matched that form when fourth in big-field Haydock handicap (24.3f) 6 weeks ago and unlikely we've seen all …

Love Of Neymore (M)

Pike Road (G)
[P]
Looked the likely winner when unseating on second chase start at Ludlow and quickly made amends under a well-judged ride to a win 7-runner handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, soft) in November. Latest C&D fourth was another solid display …
