Sole defeat came in a Grade 1; enters handicaps very much unexposed

Not the only one who couldn't lay a glove on an easy winner at Newbury last time
5	Burrows Park Bay J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	J:Charlie Deutsch T:Venetia Williams	150	—	00-452	112	135	122	27d	—	—	+6	19.1	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Quirky but well handicapped if on a going day and latest effort was respectable

Suffered first blip for this yard at Haydock last time but this is easier than that

Didn't appear to fancy fences last time and commands respect back in this discipline
NR	Balkardy Chestnut J:NON-RUNNER(7) T:Evan Williams	J:NON-RUNNER(7) T:Evan Williams	149	—	3-2222	111	132	109	24d	—	—	—	17.4	—	—
Looks handicapped about right but a good bet to give his running in current form
