Le Torrent was having his first start since 2016 when scoring over 2m at Kempton last month and there may be more to come from him. French Mix won over 1m5f here in between distinctly modest efforts while Master Burbidge is 5lb higher than February’s course and distance success, though went on to win over fences last month. WOLF OF WINDLESHAM also returns to the Flat after a spin over hurdles and looks to have every chance on his second in a higher grade than this over today’s trip at Kempton in December.
