Record over C&D reads 113; worth another chance back under suitable conditions

Three wins last year, the latest off 2lb lower at Southwell; each-way claims back on AW

2-2 over C&D as a 2yo; interesting back here, but could have been drawn better
4 (11)	Loch Carron Grey J:Jack Mitchell T:Charlie Johnston	J:Jack Mitchell T:Charlie Johnston	138	—	5-1060	75	83	55	24d	—	—	+3	7.6	3.75/1	16 6%

Just 1lb above last winning mark and return to the AW a positive, but his wide draw isn't
8 (6)	Leodis Dream Bay J:P J McDonald T:Paul Midgley	J:P J McDonald T:Paul Midgley	133	—	675800	68	80	-	20d	—	—	+1	5.9	3.75/1	16 6%
Has won one of his last 34 starts; recents efforts don't suggest that is about to change

Two of his three wins have come here, but he may need 6f around here these days
