Race Tip

Point winner LE FRIMEUR (3) was well supported for rules debut at Chepstow during November and managed to keep on for a 1. 5L victory. Missed a good chunk of the season since but looks an exciting recruit. CAME FROM NOWHERE (1) progressed nicely of late taking a competitive Ascot handicap last outing in January. Must carry a weight penalty now back in a novice. Big threat. ITSINTHENAME (2) got off the mark first time for his shrewd rookie trainer when landing a maiden contest last month. Entitled to go close again. GRAND GARCON (7) received wind surgery since a below par effort here four months ago. Can bounce back.
