Was $15.00 and lost ground in the run home when 8th last start in a hurdle at Wincanton. Giving another chance here. Should race on the speed. Could not recommend in this.

Looked good when 2nd last start in a chase at Huntingdon. Expecting to settle positively. The large claim from Luke Scott should help. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.
