Has made a promising start, going down by just a head in 7f novice here when last seen in November. Should improve further and can surely win races this year.

Forecasts

Go Rimbaud (6/4), Electric Dreams (3/1), Turret (3/1), Besieged (8/1), Romanticizing (11/1), Pace Attack (33/1), Head Office (66/1), Mmmbop (125/1), Bumaan (125/1), Ocean Force (150/1), The Mayor (250/1)

Verdict

GO RIMBAUD was going the right way when last seen in the autumn and might be able to make his experience count against a bunch of interesting newcomers, headed by Besieged and Turret.
