Painless Potter is 0-13 and has changed stables since unseating his rider in a hurdle at Worcester last month. Time Step beat a subsequent winner on debut at Ffos Las and ran well at Chelmsford under a penalty but has to give 7lb to FAATTIK, who very much caught the eye at Lingfield on debut despite showing obvious signs of inexperience – the latter will know more today.
