A winner over track and trip last month, DON’T DO IT could only manage fourth last time carrying a penalty though still finished in front of Blyton Lass. But an apprentice takes 5lb off his back today and Mick Appleby’s charge is taken to return to winning ways. Dolphin Village was winning for the first time since 2016 when successful over 1m4f at Wolverhampton while Foxrush Take Time has been thereabouts over a mile recently but hasn’t won anywhere yet and neither has Sosian. Hidden Dream scored here in November but has struggled off higher marks since.
