2:52 Leicester Tips

EXPRESSIONLESS: If building on last week's third place after a lengthy layoff, should be placed around the bare minimum. Is bigger on the exchanges. Highly encouraging return at Doncaster last month despite doing a lot wrong: slow away, hung left, hung right, then short of room. Yet was only beaten just over two and a half lengths. Very much looked in need of the run on that occasion. Should strip fitter and has won off this mark and 3 and 5 lb higher marks in the past. Step up in trip should suit and a strong jockey booking in Ross Dawson. 7 runners and 3 places up for grabs. Stable enjoying a decent run of things.

Gelded son of Kodiac & Easy Times ( Dam's sire Nayef ) who was last seen at Doncaster 16 days ago where finishing 7th/15 that being his return run after a 148 day break and is most certainly entitled to strip fitter with that run under his belt and much better should be expected from this individual now as a 4yo currently operating on a mark of 61 which is well within his capabilities E A L Dunlop's inmate looks poised to bounce back and strike here especially having found a suitable class 6 handicap to engage in where he is least exposed in my point of view with ground conditions also very much in his favour here jockey Rossa Ryan takes the ride and can give Hibernate a promising ride here at Leicester merits consideration . Respected .
