Express performer could shine at Ludlow

The Twiston-Davies team have made their usual strong start to the jumps season proper and can add to their tally with Touchwoodexpress in the KLF Insurance Brokers Invitational Handicap Hurdle at Ludlow.

Touchwoodexpress made a fine start to his campaign, making a successful return to the smaller obstacles in good style at Newton Abbot late last month.

It has to be a small worry that he was reported to have bled from the nose that day, but the fact he is back in action little over three weeks later suggests connections have seen no lasting effects.
