In excellent heart for new connections, including 4 wins and shaped as though still in form behind an easy winner in a Class 3 handicap hurdle at Sedgefield 11 days ago. The one to beat back in selling company.

15/8
Winner of a maiden at Market Rasen (heavy) and a weak novice at Hexham over the summer but has struggled back in handicaps, typically off the bridle a long way from home when well beaten at Hexham (23.3f) earlier this month. Should be more competitive in a change of headgear with sights lowered.

20/1
Modest maiden under both codes, well held on the level this season and his effort proved short-lived on hurdles return at Perth (heavy) last time, having typically taken a strong hold. Dropped into a seller with James Bowen aboard for the first time but remains with plenty to prove.

Fetched €45,000 as a 3-y-o but failed to make an impact in Points earlier this year. Could hardly have shown any less on Rules debut in a bumper at this track earlier this month and will need to improve significantly on hurdle debut.

4/1
Left behind previous form when second on handicap debut (2½m) and but didn't improve for a longer trip when third in a 23f novice handicap at Worcester last month. Arrives in form but will need to take a step forward to get off the mark.

This looks an excellent opportunity for DICKENS to land a fifth success for new connections, the main danger likely to be Mohawk Chief who could fare better dropped into a seller with Sean Bowen back aboard.
