Sergeant Brody is 0-15 but has placed several times, though this trip is probably well short of his best and his yard also run Sawpit Sienna, who followed up a win at Fakenham with a second at Wincanton. Hymn And A Prayer has hinted at ability and has been lightly raced. He will have needed his reappearance at Exeter while Darkest Day dead-heated for second over course and distance 12 days ago. MR JACK was one of the late Zoe Davison’s last winners here at the start of the month and it would be fitting if he took this for his new handler. Niall Houlihan’s claim negates a 4lb rise in the ratings.
