16:55 Coniston Handicap Hurdle

Race preview

FOR JIM has been in excellent form of late, registering three wins in his last four starts, including when hacking up at Hexham over fences earlier this month. He has fewer questions to answer than most, having proven himself on this unique track (winner on his penultimate run), while the testing ground is unlikely to pose as many problems as it might do for some. Zero To Hero, who is one of three representing the Noel Kelly stable, makes plenty of appeal on his first run for the yard having run well when second to a well-handicapped rival at Southwell when last seen in April. With the booking of Brian Hughes catching the eye, she can get involved, while Liffeydale Dreamer bounced back to form at this track last time (finished neck behind For Jim) and shouldn't be far away.
