HARA KIRI did well to sustain his run from so far back to overhaul another thrown-in rival at Market Rasen 23 days ago and looks capable of defying an 8 lb rise on that evidence. Churchman caught the eye making late headway under considerate handling on just his second handicap start over C&D in November and must enter calculations, with handicap-debutante Pollyonesock another to consider.
