There should be more to come from HIS FINEST HOUR, who got off the mark at the second time of asking at Wolverhampton in October and begins handicapping on a fair mark. Etretat and War Chant should also go well.

Career best when winning 14-runner handicap at this course (8f) in October. Below that level at Musselburgh since but useful claimer takes off 5 lb here and he's a likely player.
