2:25 Warwick Tips

This horse is getting weight from those ahead of him in the market, and that could prove crucial in this desperate ground. He actually has some good form when the ground is really soft and has been running fairly well recently on better ground, so I think he can progress again now that he gets arguably more suitable ground. He's won his only other race in a Class 2 event (he races mainly in Class 1s), and the excellent placed effort last time out suggests he's primed to strike now.

Three runs this winter for the selection. Not great, but his fitness should be improving. He started his last campaign off a 16 lb higher mark. Good jockey taking over in the saddle, and he was in the saddle for his last two wins. A trainer in decent form: 16 runners sent out during Nov??'Dec, producing 5 winners for a 31% strike rate.
