Without a victory since 2019, and pulled up in handicap hurdle (16/1) at Limerick (24f, heavy) 64 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Street Value (5/2), Baltimore Bucko (7/2), No Grey Area's (8/1), Misty Hollow (9/1), Majestic Maid (9/1), Burlesque Queen (9/1), Mon Lino (11/1), Fit To Be Tied (16/1), Runadrum (22/1), Archies Charm (22/1), Swordsman (28/1), Exit Eleven (28/1), Amaulino (33/1), Frankly All Talk (50/1)

The progressive STREET VALUE is taken to defy an 11 lb rise for the second time and complete a hat-trick. Burlesque Queen ended 2020 on the up so rates the chief threat with No Grey Area's worth considering too now he steps up in trip.
