Nye Bevan goes well for Jamie Neild and wasn’t winning out of turn at Fontwell. Despite the mandatory 6lb rise, he should go close again but Hawk Wind gives the impression he’ll be capable of a lot more if he learns to settle. Quicker ground brought about a much-improved performance from ORCHARD GROVE at Newton Abbot and he must have decent claims of a follow-up as long as the rains stay away.
