YELLOW, BLACK hoops, WHITE sleeves.
TIMEFORM VIEW Useful but his jumping and attitude are become increasing concerns. Surely capable of posing a threat down in grade from current mark, but whether he allows himself to do so is a different question. Star RatingHHHII Official BHA Rating 128 PADDY BRENNAN

TIMEFORM VIEW Won at Market Rasen last spring and was placed twice in the autumn. Has a good record fresh and isn’t discounted despite a stiff-looking mark.

RACE SUMMARY:
DHOWIN very much appeals as the type to win more races this summer and can follow up his Fontwell success. El Paso Wood is another who can go well back in these calmer waters, whilst Ask A Honey Bee surely has enough ability to figure from this mark if on a going day.
