From the same family as Dewali, a winner over 5f; gelded already; sire offers hope the distance might suit; interesting to see how he figures in the betting.

Leanne's Love
J: J R Syster
T: H Van Der Westhuizen
Recent form is unremarkable and still winless and defeats stacking up (nine on the bounce); beaten 10l (sixth) here over 7f (maiden plate) six months ago; back from an absence here; hard enough to fancy.
