Verdict
Time For Hollie made it third-time lucky at Uttoxeter after placing twice at Ffos Las but won’t find it easy to defy a penalty. NIFTY GETAWAY made a pleasing debut under Rules at Ludlow and, if building on that experience, could be the one to be on here though Stuart Crawford’s newcomer El Poppochapo is definitely worth a market check.
