Elysian Flame didn’t really live up to expectations last winter but is only four still has time on his side after just 11 career starts. Mr Grey Sky has placed in both starts so far over timber and probably didn’t stay 2m4f ion heavy going at Ffos Las when odds-on on his reappearance. He’ll win races once he learns to settle but ONE TRUE KING should get back to winning ways reverting to novice company after a couple of excellent runs in handicaps at Cheltenham following an easy win in a maiden at Uttoxeter. Plenty In The Tank broke a blood vessel when a beaten favourite at Fakenham in October so can probably be forgiven that effort.
