Ex-Irish gelding who made it 3-3 for his new yard in 25f handicap hurdle at Huntingdon in October. Wasn't disgraced back over fences at Wincanton subsequently and should continue in form.

4/5

Has improved for a step up in trip this autumn, resuming winning ways in good style in first-time cheekpieces at Huntingdon (20.7f) last week. Looks very well-in under a penalty.

Form: 000-121

Say Nothing³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: Harry Bannister| T: A M Hales| OR: 103

9/2

Off the mark in a weak race at Market Rasen in July. Poor effort on the Flat at Windsor but was in process of putting that behind her when crashing out at the last (in control) at Hereford last time.

Form: 2P-321F

10/3

In top form of late, winning 25f handicaps at Warwick and Hereford prior to a creditable third at Taunton (23.9f) last time. Change of headgear (first-time visor here).

Salley Gardens (4/5), Presenting Yeats (10/3), Say Nothing (9/2), Railway Muice (8/1)

Difficult to oppose SALLEY GARDENS, who looks very well treated under a penalty for last week's Huntingdon success where he powered away in good style after the last. Railway Muice has a lower mark to work with back over hurdles so should continue his good run of form.
