PLAY SMARTER

Having fallen early on his return/chase debut at Warwick in December, CONKWELL LEGEND has quickly resumed progress over hurdles, successful at Plumpton prior to a solid second at Ffos Las in April. He’s worth another chance in this sphere and shades the vote ahead of low-mileage Bodhisattva. Western Run can’t be dismissed either having tasted success between the ﬂags recently
