Greenhead High bids for a hat-trick after a couple of wins on the Fibresand at Southwell. He's won at this track before but carries a penalty today as does Tuesday's course and distance winner Avonvalley. The latter just got the better of Elusive Hawk on that occasion with Methaaly well beaten but another chance goes to HAADEETH. He's been threatening to get his head back in front of late and David Evans' charge may finally do so in this.
