Veterans Freddy's Star, Lodgician and Share Option could all go close in this seller if back on song. King's Road won at Fakenham in February and Nicky Nutjob confirmed his well-being by scraping home over a longer trip at Towcester last month but SAKHEE BOB makes his first appearance at the lowest level and could last a bit longer out in front today as he will have needed his run at Warwick in February. He gets a tentative vote ahead of distant Fakenham second Nevergrownup and the returning Saltagioo.
