None have found winning easy on recent outings but LOST IN NEWYORK looked quite useful when scoring at Leicester in the bleak midwinter, since when he's been far from disgraced on four starts in better company than this. He can get back on the winning track at the main expense of Amir Pasha, the sole course and distance winner in the line-up who knows his way around here very well. Micky Hammond's inmate should pick up some place money at least and provide his inexperienced pilot with a really good spin on just his third ride in public. The dark one is One For Hocky and he's worth a note in the market. Nicky Richard's unexposed inmate should have scope for improvement and could be a danger on his first outing since Boxing Day on what is only a fifth hurdling start.
