(8)

Lockdown Lass⁴¹

Age: 7| Weight: 8-6| J: S D Bowen| T: G Hanmer| OR: 48| CD

Forecasts

Jez Bomb (85/40), Golden Pharaoh (7/2), Lockdown Lass (15/2), Autumn Festival (8/1), Diddy Man (10/1), Ratafia (12/1), Flag Of Love (14/1), Reignman (14/1), Jack Daniel (16/1), Lesrico (22/1), Miss Willows (28/1)

JEZ BOMB has a much more solid profile than the majority of these and can return to winning ways having dropped back to the mark he scored from at Thirsk in the spring. Unexposed 4-y-o Reignman made a positive start to his handicap career when third at Kempton a fortnight ago and is second choice ahead of Golden Pharaoh, who should appreciate the return to 1m.
