Bumper and novice hurdes (two) winner, Idy Wood made a winning start over fences at Kempton in October in a race that has worked out well. Up 6lb for that, he ran no race at Newbury but was then a good 2nd at Doncaster. He didn't handle very heavy conditions at Chepstow last time but on this spring ground, he should be much happier. Hopeful.
