Verdict

De Dollar Man won a point, a bumper, a maiden hurdle and chase at Exeter on his first start in a handicap for which he's been raised 5lb. He has an obvious chance though MORTENS LEAM had been going well over hurdles before just touched off on his chasing bow here in November. He started odds-on for a Fakenham handicap last month and came home in very impressive fashion. He's been raised a massive 19lb for future handicaps though that won't be a concern here. The progressive Hogan's Height looks certain to get into contention after his Ludlow victory but Quietly is best watched for now after running out at Sedgefield.
