Lunar Contact – 15:40 Southwell
Flags: Horse In Focus, Top Rated
Lunar Contact had some fair form over hurdles when trained by Alan King in 2022/23, and he has made a positive start over fences lately for these connections.
He attracted support fitted with first-time cheekpieces when opening his account over three miles at Fakenham last month, seen to good effect under a change of tactics, making all of the running.
Lunar Contact progressed further when following up over the same course and distance last week, too, again well backed and he made light of a 4lb rise in the weights, generally fluent at his fences and easily drawing clear in the closing stages.
He escapes a penalty and a rise in the weights for that success, so he is very hard to oppose from a handicapping perspective, and is strongly fancied to complete a hat-trick.
