11/1

Won a poor similar race over C&D in October and nothing to write home about of late, but not the biggest surprise to see a revival in new headgear.

Proper Twelve¹²³

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Rex Dingle| T: C Gordon| OR: 100

5/2

Got off the mark over hurdles at Market Rasen in May. Runner-up first 2 starts over fences and no chance when falling early at Taunton when last seen (had his space taken in the air over the first and had nowhere to go on landing). Likely player up in trip.

Form: 2-1822F

Winning hurdler who was below form despite keeping mistakes to a minimum at Bangor (3m, heavy) last time and others preferred.

9/2

Justified support when scoring for the first time over fences at Southwell (3m, heavy) in February. Not so good at Wincanton next time but a player in this company.
