JAMESIECONN was much improved when gambled on and making a successful debut over fences at Doncaster last month. There is more to come from him and he can follow up. Hawkseye View and Halfway House Lad could be the dangers.

Verdict
Winning Irish pointer who never figured in trio of quick-fire hurdle runs but made no mistake having been well backed ahead of chase debut (tongue tied/had breathing operation during break) in staying handicap at Doncaster last month. There is more to come from him.

Verdict
Landed a gamble in C&D novice handicap in December and in better heart than his subsequent form figures at Lingfield suggest, racing too free last time. Wouldn't dismiss back here.

Verdict
A most fortuitous winner after 6 months off in 4-runner C&D handicap in November (nearly 50 lengths down when left alone 2 out). Better when third in well-run race in the mud at Wetherby last time and player if in the same form back here.
