11/2

7/1, pulled up in Thyestes Chase at Gowran (25f, heavy) 30 days ago, weakening when pulled up before 2 out. Does boast a low-mileage profile over fences and he may well get back on track now.

Forecasts

Visionarian (7/4), Ten Ten (11/2), Thunderosa (11/2), Mattie's Mountain (6/1), Campeador (17/2), Rhythm Divine (10/1), Bois De Clamart (16/1), Foxy Jacks (16/1), Thereisnodoubt (18/1), Halsafari (20/1), Elwood (28/1), Pakens Rock (40/1), Flinck (100/1), Princely Conn (125/1)

VISIONARIAN has made a bright start over hurdles, winning at Gowran in October prior to a pair of improved placed efforts in novice events at up to 17.5f. He appeals as being on a handy opening mark and earns the vote with the longer trip expected to suit. Ten Ten, back over hurdles, Mattie's Mountain and Thunderosa head up the dangers in a competitive handicap.
