The consistent STARTLED (15) bids for a hat-trick following a pair of victories tackling this trip in lower graded handicaps at Newmarket and York this season. Ticks all the right boxes and can continue the progress. Leading player. RECIPROCATED (8) showed plenty of ability on seasonal return producing a decent 2L third contesting a lower graded 6f handicap at Pontefract a month ago. Returns to 7f and can improve further. Rates highly. The progressive HILITANY (2) provided best form during March scoring by 1L in the Listed Spring Cup tackling the trip at Lingfield AW. Big claims. ROGUE MESSIAH (12) holds two wins and a placing from four career attempts. Interesting.
