TBW runs at Southwell for only the second time, the first being beaten eight lengths in a similar handicap last August off 64; he runs off 61 this afternoon and that, and the balance of his form over the Winter at Chelmsford, Wolverhampton and Kempton, gives him a competitive ew chance at the weights this pm in a tight handicap. He has to act on the Nottinghamshire tapeta but there is no reason why he shouldn't and we hope he will like Southwell and not be far away; his current double figure prices under state the competitive chance he has.

Outreach runs at Southwell for the ft in the divided seven furlong Handicap so the first constraint is that we have to take on trust that he will act there; but, like TBW, there is no reason why he shouldn't; he is nicely handicapped on the balance of his form over this Winter with only possibly Brother Dave having a better chance at the weights this afternoon; the draw could have been closer to the rail but he has quite a bit going for him if you are prepared to make the assumption that he will bounce off the tapeta on the turn in and, although his price of around sevens is not as much understatement as the TBW, we hope he will not be far away and the place double might pay around 14s.

Conquest of Power and VFTS both go to Wolverhampton tomorrow afternoon.
