Runners Spotlight

1
Blues Singer
Favorite

Bumper winner (good to soft) who had contested some warm races over hurdles prior to winning a big-field maiden at Huntingdon (2m, good) last month with something to spare; Alan King has a 42% strike-rate at Hexham; leading claims under a 7lb penalty.

Jockey: Tom BellamyTrainer: Alan King
2
Imperfectlyperfect

Course bumper winner (good to soft) who followed up on hurdle debut over C&D (good) last October; the return to Hexham and drop back in trip could suit following two heavy defeats over 2m5f/2m6f, but a couple of the other previous winners have shown stronger form.

Jockey: Derek FoxTrainer: Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore
3
Pimmsoclock

Showed a good attitude to win on his debut in France (2m2f, very soft) last October; he's changed hands since and this half-brother to the useful Cherie d'Am looks a bright prospect; not ruled out on British debut.
