Ffos Las Race 4 - SWRSL - Alfie Boulton Handicap Hurdle
TRUST HOUSE (2) has won twice hurdling. Landed a big success at Market Rasen by 4.25L last month. Retains potential and brings significant upside. THANKYOUANDPLEASE (3) is more exposed than most. Finished 5.5L second at Ayr during the weekend and interestingly he backs up so quickly. Cannot be ruled out. CAELAN (4) was busy this time last year. Not seen since finishing third at Huntingdon before Christmas. Market will prove the best guide towards his chances. CORNER FORWARD (7) offered little to date. Now steps into a handicap for the first time and with these connections big improvement looks probable. Something for the Multiples: EASTERN SHORES (6)

Third-up today. First-up finished fifth of 12 runners at Warwick on February 20 over 3200m, on slow going 7 len behind Kenzoko carrying 69.5kg at $29. Second run from a spell favourite; won by 4.5 len Market Rasen on March 15 over 3300m defeating Kalkaroo carrying 76kg at $2 in a hurdle. Found best form now. Only needs to jump well to be right in the finish.

Freshened for 59 days. Last start finished eighth of 9 starters at Chepstow on February 21 over 3200m, on slow going 34 len behind Ito Ditto with 65kg at $11. The start before that; settled back and ran on when finished fifth of 10 starters at Doncaster on December 29 over 3300m, 14 len behind Light Fandango carrying 75kg at $5. Right in the mix if anywhere near his best.
