Half-brother to the yard's very smart Cepage. Failed to make an impact in his first handicap but it's still early days and this longer trip should suit.

18/1

Reached the frame in a couple of maiden hurdles in 2020/21 season but not seen again until pulling up in a Taunton handicap hurdle at the end of March. Can only watch after that.

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard| OR: 90WS

7/1

Lingfield novice hurdle winner who has yet to scale same heights in handicaps over hurdles and fences. Hopes pinned on a recent windc op sparking a revival (also tongue tied first time).

Forecasts

Bobalot (2/1), New Beginnings (3/1), Hunter Legend (7/2), Malina Jamila (7/2), Port Or Starboard (4/1), Micronormous (5/1), Sherborne (7/1), Roscoe Tara (18/1), Of Corse I Can (33/1), Nowyouvebinandunit (150/1)

NEW BEGINNINGS appeals as one who should have more to offer in handicaps and gets the vote. Micronormous and Hunter Legend are other lightly-raced types who could have their best days ahead of them and head the dangers.
