7:30 Southwell Tips

Made the frame in two of his four starts last season, running to a fairly useful level and contesting some decent races. He has the potential to make a much better three-year-old and came close to losing his maiden tag on his return to action when second at Catterick over 7f. Connections should be able to find a race or two for him over that sort of trip or further.

Runner-up in both runs here. Steps back up in distance today and looks likely to go very close in a winnable race.

Showed plenty of promise on debut at Kempton in October when finishing 6th of 13. Likely to improve having had that run and holds an each-way chance.

Just held here last time out and the front two were both miles clear of the rest. An extra furlong should help.

Irish Incentive returns to Southwell, the scene of her career-best performance in March. That was at Class 4 level, and the filly drops in class today. She also receives allowances here, carrying bottom weight as a result. From a family of decent types, including Group 1 winner Bayside Boy, Irish Incentive could go well at big odds wearing cheekpieces for the first time.
