T: Patrick Morris

Just 2-43 with his sole success in Britain coming over 9.4f here; has finished runner-up in five of his seven starts over C&D and is lower in the weights than for all of them; capable of making some sort of impact.

Doesn't always appear the most resolute in a finish but he is regularly placed and conditions hold no terrors; each-way claims once more.

Getting on for two years since his last win but this C&D winner has dropped to a tempting mark and he didn't run badly in a stronger race at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) six weeks ago; apprentice takes off a handy 5lb too; high on the list.

Runner-up (beaten over 4l) in this last year, but yet to win on turf (0-17); gamely fended off the frustrating Little Ted at Newcastle (1m; 11-2) on penultimate start, but reportedly ran flat back there on latest; stable have more obvious chance with Wicklow Way.
