Had dropped to a good mark prior to making all in a lower grade at Sandown (1m, good to firm); solid chance off 3lb lower and goes on all ground.

T: Mark Pattinson

His losing run is up to 13 and he's not as good as he was, but off a reduced mark he's run well to be third on his last three outings, over C&D (good to firm) last time after a two-month break; could be thereabouts.

Nine-race maiden but he turned things around off a reduced mark when runner-up behind Hartswood over C&D (cheekpieces added) last month; has a 3lb swing in the weights with his old rival and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid.

The Reverend

T: William Haggas

Looked one to follow when impressive on handicap debut at Ascot (1m4f, soft) last September; failed to kick on from that initially but got back on track with convincing win in small field at Ripon (1m4f, soft) in July; could have more to offer for top yard now things have clicked again, especially now back up in trip, and he's not necessarily a soft-ground specialist.

J: Daniel Tudhope

T: William Haggas

Looked potentially smart when smooth winner on 1m4f Ascot handicap debut (soft) last September in first-time cheekpieces; hasn't progressed as might have been expected in three subsequent runs (favourite each time) but not disgraced either and may have found good to firm ground too lively (raced on softer than good otherwise) when fifth of 12 in a York Dante meeting handicap on reappearance (no headgear); still has time on his side and a potential class act giving weight away to lesser opposition in refitted cheekpieces.

J: Billy Garritty

T: Liam Bailey

Showed a glimmer of promise here (1m2f) in September but well beaten here (1m4f) nine days later and he's now 0-16; drops back in trip following a break; others make greater appeal.

14/1

Verdict

Tim Easterby’s 2yos usually need their debut outings so there was plenty to like about the opening effort of BUBBLES WONKY at Redcar recently, and this half-brother to Dante runner-up Mildenberger gets the nod. There are a few likely dangers, however, with Individualism and L’Ennemi (second choice) possessing solid profiles, and Salisbury third Saviour and the Haggas newcomer The Reverend bringing potential.[Ben Hutton]
