Nothing wrong with his C&D second a month ago and was unlucky back on turf last time (same Bath handicap he won last season), when hitting plenty of traffic; will rightly be popular.

Won this race (firm) last year and he scored off 1lb lower at Kempton in the autumn; has remained in good form on AW this year and he chased home an improver at Lingfield (6f) last month; should get a good pace back on turf and he's a big player back at this track.

Currently 0-11 but he ran well at Southwell on his penultimate start and turned in another fair effort there five weeks ago; Rossa Ryan takes over this afternoon and he's well drawn; each-way shout.

She had looked exposed prior to springing a minor surprise at Kempton last week (6f; 0-65), keeping on strongly in the closing stages; penalty leaves her 1lb wrong but as the only winner in the field she has to be high on the list.
