INHERITANCE THIEF is a rare bumper runner at this track for trainer Venetia Williams. The selection has a good jockey on board today and they can get the better of Tell It To Me who hails from a family containing a number of precocious individuals including first time out bumper winners while Dandy Dan can claim third for a stable who are 3/6 in bumpers at this track in recent seasons.
