BREAKING GROUND was still on bridle when blundering an unseating Richie McLernon on the final circuit at Wincanton earlier this month. He’d travelled strongly throughout when scoring at the same track earlier and looks to be at the top of his game. Uncle Percy has had a break since falling at Huntingdon in November but is lightly raced. Pink Tara will have needed her run at Ludlow so that wasn’t a bad effort while Scartare has been getting closer but is now 0-12. Way Of The World is preferred to Jimmy Bell of the remainder.
