J: Jack Doughty

The extended 5f at Brighton (good to firm) last May brought his only win from 27 races; his most competitive shows since were on AW this March but he was second favourite on return to turf at Bath last Friday, only to be hampered; not entirely dismissed.

Form & Verdict
Sole win from 18 starts came in a classified event over C&D (good to firm) last June and he's been placed in handicaps off higher marks than this; off since creditable fourth on AW at Southwell in November but he's gone well after a break before and is respected.

Made all at Lingfield (5f classified) in January but that was a narrow success and he's been vulnerable to finishers in five subsequent runs; could be the same story here and he looks opposable back in a handicap.

Won a similar contest at Lingfield (5f, Polytrack) in January and his proven early speed is an asset over this C&D, but the outside stall poses a problem; cheekpieces return.
