Dens Delight finished ahead of Rickety Gate at Uttoxeter without threatening. The easy winner that day is trained by Fergal O’Brien, who saddles a similar sort in this in THE BEES KNEES. By Oscar and a half-brother to two winning jumpers, the latter won a point in January and wasn’t beaten far at Huntingdon in March on his debut under Rules. Socialist Agenda’s win here last month is working out quite well but he has a penalty to carry. San Agustin, another former pointer, and Wait For The Lord should be monitored for any market support.
