Pennine Brewing Company Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

14-race maiden who has a very stiff task in this novice event.

Has shown modest form over 6f/7f and likely to be one for handicaps.

Disappointing on soft ground at Haydock last week, but comes into the reckoning on his two previous runs when second in a Doncaster novice (6f, good to firm) and in an Ayr maiden (6f, good to firm); speedy and should be as effective at this trip; worth considering.

Third in a Newbury maiden (5f, good) in April last year on only start for Marcus Tregoning; subsequently gelded and absent for 11 months; third at Newcastle on stable debut in March (5f) but well beaten on Tapeta last time (5f); back after a wind op with tongue-tie on; a possible.

Ordinary form in maiden/novice on the AW over 5f/6f and best watched for now.
