Overstate won three times on the Flat and Jacks Profit has won twice on the all-weather though, along with Dickens, the latter was well beaten at Lingfield last month on his hurdles bow. By Pass improved on her hurdles debut when third at Hereford, however, and dual bumper winner Gallopade had excuses for a poor run at Fakenham in the autumn. WELSH CHARGER easily won a maiden here eight days ago and doesn’t have much more to do in this, despite a penalty. Masked Dance appeared to find 2m4f too far at Huntingdon and may be best of the rest.
