Formwatch

New Era (IRE) Jumped well when opening account over fences at Warwick, must go close.

Pounsley Mill (IRE) Gave owners first winner in 12 years when taking moderate Folkestone affair. More to do here but stable collected 12 months ago.

Father McCarten (IRE) Went lame when winning a Huntingdon bumper in 1998, not been seen out since but held in some regard.

Sadler's Realm Had the class to win on the flat and came up against a decent sort at Plumpton. Ready to register first win over fences now.
