HART OF STEEL won this last year and was last seen making a winning comeback at Carlisle. This time around he’s 8lb higher than last year but he still looks quite capable of defending his title. GAMESTERS ICON finished last season off with a solid 2nd over C&D and has since had a wind operation. Normal improvement can see her a player but she’s got a bit to find on the selection.

DOYEN BREED gets the nod as he is fighting fit following a pleasing comeback 2nd at Kelso 11 days back. He held his own well enough in 5th at G1 level to finish his season off and can strike in a 4 horse field. J’AI FROID has incurred the wrath of the assessor after winning 4 in a row over timber.

One to consider – J’AI FROID (3)
Race 3 – Hexham Racecourse
MAID OF HOUXTY was nothing special on debut in 6th in a Carlisle bumper but a shift to hurdles saw an immediate improvement when a close 3rd at Newcastle back in February. She can take another step forward benefitting from weight allowance.
