3.00 Good spot, CMB. You are correct, he has never had a runner at Hamilton before. De Sousa has only ridden for once before, just over a year ago and finished 2nd on a 9/2 shot. Horse does need to improve but it is a poor race. This is his 2nd time in a handicap, and interestingly Menuisier has a much better record 2nd time in handicap than 1st, his record 2nd time is 7 wins from 33 runners (+17 LSP), from the losers 10 were priced 20/1 or bigger. 2 of those 7 winners had been well beaten (10+ lengths) on their previous run, price of winners were 8/1 and 16/1.
Good luck mate.
