NIFTY AT FIFTY remains winless but was well backed over course and distance on his reappearance and only beaten a head. He looked on course to break his duck at Exeter earlier this month but swerved and unseated his rider when in front so clearly has his quirks but a clear round today should see him recoup losses. Amzac Magic made a satisfactory return to action when third at Market Rasen and rates a danger while Glenforde will strip fitter for his run here last month but Du Destin is proving a big disappointment.
