Reportedly unsteerable before running out on her hurdling debut at Exeter.

Doubly penalised and has to steady the ship after capitulating tamely last time.

Suffering from heat stress last time; massive shout on his previous efforts.

Hasn't progressed from his bumper win; this smaller field could suit him.

Placed in a point but has looked limited in both his starts under rules.
6	Time To Dazzle Bay J:Jamie Moore T:Gary Moore	J:Jamie Moore T:Gary Moore	154	—	5	-	112	71	20d	—	—	—	0	—	—
20-1 and never dangerous when beaten 23l behind a stablemate on good ground here.
