NICATOR (1) aims to turn two runner-up finishes into a win after placing second twice over 1m in Southwell AW novice races with the latter during December. May go one better. IMPERIAL TROOPER (6) is proving consistently with four placed efforts past six attempts including when missing by a neck to be third in a 1m2f handicap at Newcastle AW. Expected to challenge. HILL O RUE (8) makes some attraction towards bottom of the weights. Gained a short-head success contesting a Beverley handicap on final outing last season. Might double up. MAFTING (2) cannot be discounted holding winning course and distance form.
