Verdict

KEYBOARD is getting better with each run and has an excellent chance on these terms up against 3 penalised winners, including expensive French-recruit Vivre le Reve, whose British debut was too bad to be true.

5	Decent maiden on the Flat and has got better with each run over hurdles, second in novice at Musselburgh 2 weeks ago, though did prove hard to control under pressure in this headgear. Excellent opportunity in this field. 1st Pick 5 Keyboard (Ire) Jockey: Ryan Mania Trainer: Adam Nicol J: Ryan Mania T: Adam Nicol	100	-	-	-	67%

1	Expensive French recruit having won 6-runner juvenile hurdle at Lyon Parilly on debut in November. Prominent in the betting but ran no sort of race starting out for new connections at Wetherby last month. Worth another chance but has a 10 lb penalty. 2nd Pick 1 Vivre Le Reve Jockey: Ben Jones Trainer: Ben Pauling J: Ben Jones T: Ben Pauling	86	-	-	-	12%

3	Modest winner on Flat but has some size about him and defied long odds when making a successful debut over hurdles in a Musselburgh juvenile maiden (15.5f) in November, proving 2¼ lengths too strong for Keyboard. However, second has improved since and now 6 lb worse off with that rival. 3rd Pick 3 Bruce Banner (Ire) Jockey: Nathan Moscrop Trainer: Rebecca Menzies J: Nathan Moscrop T: Rebecca Menzies	88	-	-	-	6%
