Verdict
It took Uther Pendragon 29 attempts to score on the all-weather but he finally did so at Lingfield three days ago and is penalised for this. Selfish Brian has been in the mix at Wolverhampton in a couple for outings for his new yard but THUNDER GAP appreciated the return to 1m2f when runner -up at Newcastle last month and is taken to go one better with this extra furlong likely to suit. All About Alice won a classified race over track and trip back in August but has failed to figure in handicaps since.
