ANGEL WILL BE A DEVIL TO GET THE BETTER OF AT SOUTHWELL

ANGEL HUNTER has a rather hit-and-miss profile but while he's been disappointing on Polytrack on his last two starts, he has raced only once on Tapeta and that came when sharing the spoils in a 7f handicap here in October.

- RORY DELARGY

7:00 Southwell - Class 3 (0-90) Handicap 1m13y

Like this contest, that was a 0-90 and Angel Hunter kept on strongly to grab a share of victory on the line. He's proven over 1m and will appreciate the return to this track, while the fitting of blinkers is a statistical positive.

Richard Hannon has utilised first-time blinkers just seven times in the last nine months, but three of the horses concerned have won, at odds of 3/1, 11/2 and 11/1 for a decent profit.
