SPORTINGSILVERMINE was the latest to reap the rewards of a switch to James Owen and with the promise of more to come for this yard, he can supplement his Southwell success. Letsbrefrank won this series in 2024 and is one of 4 Jim Goldie inmates, with Cascade Hall also of interest. It's A Love Thing also warrants a mention based on his recent AW form.
