Onlyfoolsownhorses is potentially well treated returning from a break but may not be the force of old. GOLAN CLOUD (NAP) is 8lb higher than when winning this 12 months ago but was placed off similar marks at Hexham at the end of last year so has every chance of staging a repeat getting 15lb less Theo Gillard’s allowance from Joie De Vivre. The four-year-old Masterdream has travelled a long way to make his handicap debut so is worth a market check.
