Houndscourt alternates between hurdles and fences and gained his third victory over the smaller obstacles with an all-the-way success at Southwell for which he has a 7lb penalty. He'll have most of these at full stretch but TICKANRUN can wear him down. Micky Hammond's grey deserves a change of fortune having finished runner-up in his last four starts, the latest pair after returning from a very long break and changing stables. His previous handler, Chris Grant, will be hoping Broadway Belle can lose her maiden tag soon and she would have gone close at Kelso last time had her rider not lost an iron approaching the last. Floramoss showed some potential at this time last year but hasn't gone on as expected.
