HICKORY looked a useful prospect when scoring at Yarmouth on debut back in August 2020, and expected to improve significantly from that effort, he's fancied to take his record to 2-2 in a race that shouldn't take much winning. Newcomers Glam Puss, Alchemist's Dream and Bluebells Boy head up the dangers before market clues.
