Formscan - THEATRE TOM was challenging for the lead here in September when falling a couple of hurdles from home. Olly Murphy's charge would have likely been thereabouts at the finish with a clear round and looks worthy of another chance in this lower grade. Locked Down Lad posted a better effort when fourth over these hurdles in July. He may improve for this extra test of stamina, while Katie's Melody has a shout on her second at Chepstow back in April and is preferred to Eskimo Sam.
