Produced his best form yet when a clear second in Haydock's Tommy Whittle (3m1f)

Coming to hand by the looks; off last winning mark and now tried in cheekpieces
1	Choosethenews b J:Jamie Hamilton T:Mark Walford	J:Jamie Hamilton T:Mark Walford	169	—	31-22P	126	132	121	58d	—	—	+7	24	9/2 18%
Stamina to prove but won a 3m point and was going places until pulling up last time

Good return from an absence; returning to 3m is fine but needs to avoid the 'bounce'
2	Santonito b J:Mr Jack Andrews(3) T:T Ellis	J:Mr Jack Andrews(3) T:T Ellis	166	p	5-3366	123	125	109	52d	—	—	+13	20.4	10/1 9%
Made a likeable start for this yard until bleeding last time; chance if the wheels stay on

Eider runner-up last term; third at Ayr but only four ran and this race is stronger

Record of 3-9 over fences but the wins came at a lower level; may need his best form yet

Fairly handicapped but needed to show more after an absence on recent stable debut
