Lord Torranaga hacked up at Southwell and a good run is expected but he hasn't scored in 16 Turf runs. My Brother MIke came from a long way back to land an amateur jockeys' handicap at Nottingham and is only 3lb highe. He was clear of Lockdown Dream and can confirm placings on worse terms. However, WHITWELL is a good ride for an amateur and this consistent gelding landed his sole career success here in mid-June in a similar contest.
