Light Em Up Nigel has found one too good in maiden hurdles on his last four starts now and is taken on with LOCK OUT, another handicapping for the first time. The latter made a winning debut over timber at Newbury last month and came up against higher rated horses than these carrying a penalty at Kempton last time. Pepe Le Moko will find this easier than his latest task at Cheltenham and could go well while Flat White has been winning on the level since last seen over hurdles.
