Mammies Boy

Scored at Warwick (2m5f) on his final run for Jonjo and AJ O'Neill but he looked rusty after ten months off when last of 15 in 2m4f Wincanton handicap for new yard 27 days ago; this C&D winner should take a step forward here with cheekpieces added.

Treasure Planet

A fair ex-Irish Flat maiden who got off the mark on just his second start over hurdles at Ludlow (2m) in November; went too freely next time but hooded when a very good second of six on his handicap debut at Newbury (2m) 24 days ago; a player on that form but headgear is left off now over this longer trip.
