Pickamix ran well for third at Ludlow in November and should go well if fully wound-up. Seniergues was given plenty to do when fourth at Ffos Las last month while High Wheeler ran well for a long way at Stratford. Sam Fairyann is a possible improver but this is best left to MR MONOCHROME after his demolition job at Hexham. He can shrug of a penalty to follow up.
