FRANKIE BABY wasn’t given a hard time when coming up against a couple of potentially-useful bumper horses at Hereford. Apart from winning pointer Adrimel, there doesn’t look to be anything in this to worry the Warren Greatrex runner, who can recoup losses. No Quarter Asked disappointed when last seen at Southwell in July and Big Data has had wind surgery since his fourth at Chepstow in April. Dads Legacy has a staying pedigree and will probably do better when going jumping.
