Katahdin is burdened with a penalty for winning at Southwell and OAKLEY is preferred. Philip Hobbs’ charge finished third at Kempton on last month’s debut and a winner has already come out of the race. Ganache was also placed at Kempton on his introduction but has something to find with the selection on collateral form while both Third Wind and Zee Man made the frame last time. Good Man Jim is a point-to-point winner and worth a second glance along with Floki, Emitom and Realms Of Fire.
