Following a breathing operation and with cheekpieces refitted, MOYTIER was very much in pole position when exiting four out at Wincanton recently, a race won by the re-opposing Flash Gorcombe. Syd Hosie's charge is now 8 lb better off with that rival and makes plenty of appeal. Valirann Gold put in a good shift at Chepstow last time, all things considered, and he is just about second choice ahead of Bolsover Bill and Time To Bite, who were first and third respectively over C&D on New Year's Day.
