Bagged 3 wins from 11 runs last year, ending campaign with decisive victory in 9-runner handicap at Leicester (11.8f, heavy). 5 lb higher on return but is a must for the shortlist.

Forgetmenotblue (2/1), Socks Off (9/2), Fen Tiger (6/1), Marbuzet (8/1), Poster Child (9/1), Sugarpiehoneybunch (12/1), Visitant (14/1), Smart Lass (16/1), Turbulent Power (16/1), Purple Ice (18/1), Victoriano (20/1), Seven For A Pound (66/1), Lil Bit Of Magic (150/1)

Verdict

C&D winner FEN TIGER had a fine campaign last year and returns on a workable mark. He gets the nod in a tricky-looking handicap. Poster Child and Purple Ice should also go well.
