Having recorded back-to-back victories in novice races, EXCELLENT BELIEVE had his winning run ended upped to listed level at Chester last month, but he could well resume his progress as he makes the switch to a handicap. The 3-y-o can see off the challenge of Kodi Lion, who isn't taken lightly as he drops back in grade, with Blue Prince also one to note.
