Egbert and Grey D‘alco were both engaged in the 1.15 at Kempton yesterday. Maninsane, a winner at Southwell in March, made an encouraging reappearance at Exeter but Will Sting found Class 3 company too hot at Huntingdon after landing a Doncaster novices‘ handicap. OXYGEN was bought as a chaser after finishing a close second over fences as a four-year-old in France to a horse who has won three times subsequently. He did not show much over hurdles but this should be his game and he could be on a lenient mark.
