---

🟨 Placed – Montmartin @ 13.00

15:30 Ffos Las (EP: 4 places)
🔹 Jumped into contention late from midfield – strong third on chase debut after two-year layoff.
🔍 Lesson: Long-absent returnees with decent early handicap form + trainer intent (chase debut, tongue tie) are worth including at 12/1+.

---

⛔ Lost – Mary’s Fortune @ 21.00

16:05 Ffos Las (EP: 3 places)
🔹 Never travelling – tailed off before 3 out. Weak return from the point field.
🔍 Lesson: Be more cautious with ex-pointers switching to hurdles without market support, especially after long lay-offs.

⛔ Lost – Cinque Verde @ 17.00

16:20 Southwell (EP: 5 places)
🔹 Pressed early but faded – could not match finishing kick of closers.
🔍 Lesson: Recent win flattered; 5f tapeta sprints demand more than raw early speed. Big mark rise and pace pressure caught her out.

🟨 Placed – Master Dancer @ 17.00

16:40 Ffos Las (EP: 4 places)
🔹 Stayed on steadily into 4th – second-up after wind-op, hinted at more to come.
🔍 Lesson: Follow second-up stayers post-wind surgery—especially in class 4 mid-trip handicaps where many fade late.

---

✅ Summary Takeaway:
Modest return, but system logic held up. Two double-figure places in competitive handicaps keep confidence high—especially with Montmartin showing promise off a huge layoff.

🧠 Next Step: Tighten filter for returnees from points and sprints where recent wins may flatter. Value still lives in the 13.0–17.0 zone.
