SPICED RUM ran well back from a 13-month absence when second at Wolverhampton recently and looks capable of exploiting an attractive mark in relation to her hurdling form. Tee Aitch Aye shaped promisingly when third on his handicap debut at Carlisle and is open to improvement stepping up significantly in trip. Secret Rock made an encouraging comeback at Leopardstown, while Billy Bathgate impressed when winning at Redcar just 7 days ago.
