LOCKDOWN LEADER was considerately handled on his return at Aintree and looks to have got in lightly for his handicap debut so gets the nod in a race where plenty arrive with question marks against them. Good Bye hinted at a revival after a wind op when third at Exeter and rates the chief threat with Kepy Blanc also worth considering now he steps into handicap company too.
