4:45 Modern Times (14/1) has showed up well more often than not over all types of surfaces and going, but remains a maiden after 10 races.
The 1st time visor is what draws my attention. He needs to find a length or two to be competetive at very nice odds.
I'll take my chances he springs a surprise on his 2nd run at Southwell.
6:45 11yo Documenting (22/1) does not look ready to retire just yet. I think his mark of 88 puts him right in the fun zone against any, known, genuine, 7f handicapper.
I have never quite worked out what cheekpieces do for a horse regarding improvement of performance. That said, if Documenting finds a couple of lengths at 11, he'll run up and down over this lot in a C3 on the AW.
