Today’s tip comes from Carlisle where the talented DOESLESSTHANME makes his seasonal debut. This exciting novice chaser from the powerful Howard Johnson yard was only beaten by 2 horses last season; the smart Alfie Flits and Knockara Beau – who both went on to have highly successful seasons. These 2 defeats both came in black type races, so his record of 5 wins from 7 is impressive. He has decent track form, and has won over today’s distance. Howard Johnson is a prolific trainer at the track and has nominated this horse as his ‘one to follow’ for the season so it would be no surprise if he won today, at odds of around 3/1.
