Verdict
LELANTOS (NAP) is another with leading claims for Nicky Henderson’s yard. He bids or a hat-trick raised only 3lb for his latest success at Fakenham. Espinator landed a hat-trick when scoring at Newton Abbot in September but hasn’t raced since and is 13lb higher today while Easkey Lad landed a double over 2m here last summer but is another returning from a lay-off. Dalkingstown is fitted with a tongue-tie on his return to the smaller obstacles having placed over fences at Uttoxeter recently.
