Found one too good in his first two handicaps and looked set to fill same position until leading where it matters when upped to 2m at Kempton last month; big player up 3lb if okay on this sharper track.

Won narrowly over C&D last August and at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) in September but poor since then, including in three starts over hurdles for this yard; hard to know how he will fare back on this surface from 2lb above his last winning mark.

7 yo Gelding

OR: 74

Form & Verdict

Isn't the easiest to weigh up, particularly as he's going beyond 1m4f for the first time (has won over hurdles); not totally ruled out if turf run 18 days ago, where he picked off a few rivals late, has sharpened him up.

Ran well over C&D one year ago (after 495 days off) and also went close at Lingfield last winter; not quite as persuasive subsequently but he's had a wind operation since last seen and is not discounted at this level.

Form & Verdict

Clear promise in second and third maiden runs and step up to 2m saw her beat four rivals with ease in handicap at Thirsk on Friday; this is a quick turnaround but easy to think 6lb penalty (she's 2lb well in) may not stop her.
