Smith scored over track and trip recently with the re-opposing Hannalite and Severus Alexander filling the places. But the former was caught at the line by OWEN LITTLE at Kempton before that and the latter is taken to confirm running. A first winner for new trainer Matt Crawley, his charge overcame a slow start on that occasion and has plenty of scope for further progress over today’s trip. Global Wonder won over 1m4f at Brighton earlier though has been well beaten over timber subsequently.
