AGAINST THE WIND (4) indicated ability winning a Newcastle (5f) novice. Finished fifth attempting a valuable sales race last season and gelded during winter could be on a fair mark for three-year-old return. FUJI MOUNTAIN (2) was going well end of last year providing a Chester win followed by a third tackling a competitive York handicap. In the mix. NAD ALSHIBA GREEN (9) won a nursery that worked out well at Sandown (5f) back in August suggesting this mark is within reach subsequently. Course and distance novice winner NEYTIRI TE TSKAHA (11) is another to consider.
