1/6
Slightly frustrating last season but an improved performer this term, recording a third win on Warwick handicap debut (2m) 34 days ago, all out. Will take all the beating.

Showed first form on first outing since leaving Bryan F. Murphy when fifth of 12 in maiden hurdle at this C&D (good, 40/1) 79 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

Showed a bit under a considerate ride on Kelso hurdles debut in October but went backwards at Catterick 10 weeks on. Handicaps presumably up after this.

Nicely bred bumper winner who looked badly in need of the experience on his Wetherby hurdle debut, behind when unseating 4 out. Should be capable of better.

Forecasts

Barrichello (1/6), Bottle Hill (7/1), Fringill Dike (17/2), Kian Calling (28/1), Copper Beach (50/1), Heritier De Sivola (50/1), Coolmoyne (250/1)

Verdict

BARRICHELLO is a much-improved performer this season and has been found an excellent opportunity to add to his tally. Bumper-winner Fringill Dike made an unpromising start to his hurdle career at Wetherby last month but is nicely bred and should be capable of better.
