This looks to rest between the penalised pair Mr Clarkson and LOUIS' VAC POUCH. The market is likely to be drawn to the David Pipe trained horse, in part, due to his sizeable purchase price. He's almost certainly capable of bouncing back from an early blunder last time, but Louis' Vac Pouch holds very similar form claims, and whilst he might have seen off a horse who is beginning to appear slightly disappointing last time at Southwell, he displayed a most likeable attitude, and he probably holds much better claims of winning another novice under a penalty (partly offset by his riders claim) than he does competing in a handicap from a mark of 128. 1.
