Maiden who ran one of his better races when 11¾ lengths seventh of 18 to Hees Dynamite in handicap hurdle at Limerick (21f, good to soft, 33/1) 17 days ago, keeping on gradually. Needs to pull out more if he's to open his account here.

Forecasts

Hees Dynamite (11/4), Beechfield (4/1), Rideau Canal (11/2), Evolving (13/2), Delias Pet (7/1), Klassman (7/1), Hurricane Honey (7/1), Lariat (8/1), Sandyman (10/1), Head For Home (14/1), Royal Time (14/1), Kate Ill Know (18/1), French Milan (20/1), Glas Acres (20/1), Inch Alainn (25/1), I'vedoneitall (33/1), Weir Lane (50/1), Demanding Gerry (66/1), Fly With Me Chik (66/1)

HEES DYNAMITE confirmed previous promise when running out a good winner of a big-field Limerick handicap 17 days ago and he could be worth siding with to follow up from a 7 lb higher mark. Beechfield, who is easily one of the least exposed, and Hurricane Honey rate a couple of likely threats, with veteran mare Kate Ill Know respected also now returned to the smaller obstacles.
