Leskinfere is the only course and distance winner in the line-up but it’s about time LE TUEUR was getting his head in front over fences after a number of near-misses. December’s track and trip third Counteract looks a danger and On The Platform has been fairly consistent. Cloudy Wednesday has finished second twice at Leicester since winning at Fakenham and Ya Know Yaseff was well backed in one of those races last month but unseated his rider in the early stages.
