Has won her last four races by an aggregate of about 52l; made all at Lingfield (1m5f, AW) most recently; climbing the weights and steps up further in grade but commands respect in current form.

Refused to race on last visit here when due to contest a handicap hurdle in October; won over an extended 1m3f and 2m back on the Flat this month, scoring by 19l last week at Nottingham when 2lb well in under a penalty; that was an apprentice race so has no penalty.

Form & Verdict
Not as good this year and has looked to have no excuses in some ordinary handicaps of late; only 1lb lower than when well held over 1m6f here 12 days ago and Free World looks his trainer's best chance.

Has registered four wins, the last two over 2m on turf (good/good to firm) last summer; has generally struggled this season but he's on a reduced mark and made some late headway at Ffos Las last time; was beaten only about 3l in that race and has possibilities if he can build on that; visor is removed and blinkers return.
