FOR PLEASURE showed the benefit of a run at Market Rasen when making all at Stratford and easing to a wide-margin success. It’s no surprise that he’s turned out again quickly under a penalty as he’ll be going up much more than 7lb when reassessed. Phoebus Lescribaa was too keen on his return to action at Uttoxeter and is better than that but Lady Cylla remains winless and hasn’t raced since December. Financial Conduct still has a bit of scope over hurdles but Chantecler’s record of 1-20 speaks for itself.
