TIMEFORM VIEW Confirmed the promise of his reappearance at the second attempt when winning 4-runner handicap (7/2) at Sandown (10f, good to firm) 16 days ago, by length from Nolton Cross. 2lb rise shouldn’t prevent another good run if turning up in similar form.

Trainer: Hugo Palmer, Malpas Form: 42-12 1 wins £3942 Breeder: Lynch Bages Ltd Sponsor: Middleham Park Racing TIMEFORM VIEW Didn’t need to improve to get off the mark at Wolverhampton (8.6f) back in January, having the run of things once he got across to lead from his wide draw. Shaped well in a race run at a crawl on handicap debut at Sandown subsequently and likely has more to come. Silvestre De Sousa Star RatingHHHII Official BHA Rating 80
