C&D winner on his second start and this initial mark should be manageable
3 (1)	Travel Candy b Harry Russell(3) · Brian Ellison	Harry Russell(3) · Brian Ellison	134	—	76131	67	74	52	13d	—	—	+12	25	11/2 15%
Catterick winner and effectively 2lb higher with Harry Russell claiming 3lb

Improved fifth in his final novice and that's something to build on now into nurseries
4 (8)	Tees Douge b Connor Murtagh · Adrian Nicholls	Connor Murtagh · Adrian Nicholls	134	p	02463	67	73	51	13d	—	—	+1	11.8	15/2 12%
Favourite for Travel Candy's nursery at Catterick and wasn't helped by a sluggish start
6 (6)	Moyola b Paul Mulrennan · Lucinda Russell	Paul Mulrennan · Lucinda Russell	132	t	836	65	71	59	55d	—	—	-1	8.5	17/2 11%
Interesting on his middle qualifying run and now goes in a tongue-tie
5 (5)	Lochaber b Pierre-Louis Jamin(3) · K R Burke	Pierre-Louis Jamin(3) · K R Burke	132	h	4465	65	73	56	13d	—	—	-2	6.1	12 8%
Ended up with too much to do when behind a couple of these at Catterick
8 (2)	Mehigburn b Jason Hart · Roger Fell & Sean Murray	Jason Hart · Roger Fell & Sean Murray	130	—	656	63	73	56	10d	—	—	-1	4.9	22 5%
Best effort to date was his fifth on the AW (5f) and only seven ran that day
7 (4)	Be Here Now b Andrew Mullen · Nigel Tinkler	Andrew Mullen · Nigel Tinkler	131	—	869	64	72	56	27d	—	—	+1	4.5	25 4%
Nurseries were always going to be more like it and there could be some improvement lurking
9 (7)	Riverview Law b William Pyle(7) · Grant Tuer	William Pyle(7) · Grant Tuer	123	—	270	56	72	50	13d	—	—	+2	4.7	40 3%
Hasn't progressed from a decent debut but that's not done her mark any harm
