INDEPENDENT JIMMY (4) holds some reasonable form among maiden and novice company. Stayed on into fourth tackling 2m1f making handicap debut at this track in October. Better anticipated going up in trip. LATHAN (1) landed a match race at Newcastle (2m4 1/2f) last month. Fell two out at Wetherby the following day. Key player on handicap debut if that has left no ill effects. DEEP STRATO (9) is a point-to-point winner. Yet to fire hurdling. Switch to handicaps offers renewed hope. NAVIGATE WEST (5) has been off the track since April 2023. Interestingly connections persevere.
