Showed first form in this sphere (in first-time cheekpieces) when third in 17-runner handicap at Down Royal (20.4f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Return to shorter not sure to suit but still needs considering.

4/1

Fared a little better in first-time blinkers here latest but may find this trip on the sharp side. Visor replaces blinkers. 2 lb out of the handicap.

New Zealander^b1¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Thomas Willmott| T: L Kerr| OR: 71

Forecasts

Iron Heart (13/8), Topkapi Star (7/2), Golden Chancer (4/1), Keepthefaithinme (9/2), Foxhollow (5/1), Oot Ma Way (11/1), New Zealander (33/1), A Place Apart (40/1)

FOXHOLLOW will benefit from this stiffer test of stamina and is fancied to make a successful handicap debut. Iron Heart and Keepthefaithinme look the likeliest dangers.
