Verdict

I See You Well has returned from a long break in good form and has only gone up 2lb for his victory over this trip at Plumpton. FIRST MAN landed a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon then took advantage of a 10lb lower mark over this track and trip where he would have won much more easily but for sprawling on landing after the last. He's been raised 9lb but a hat-trick beckons with his rider able to claim 5lb. Clondaw Rigger was a long way behind in that latter event but Dentley De Mee, still a maiden over fences after 16 starts, ran much better in a Class 3 handicap at Market Rasen and looks the main threat.
