Made just a mildly encouraging debut when fifth of nine at Leicester (6f, good to soft) three weeks ago but ought to have learned from that experience and might be aided by the tongue-tie here.

Ran Amok

10st 4lb

J: Luke Morris

T: Hugo Palmer

Scored over C&D last July and he signalled he is ready to go in again on the back of breathing surgery when a very good head second of ten in 6f Chester handicap a week ago; merits serious consideration nudged up 1lb.

8st 4lb

J: Luke Morris

T: Hugo Palmer

Both wins over 6f (good to soft and good) and he ran well from off the pace here (5.5f, soft) in September; fairly encouraging return when fifth of 12 at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) last month after which he had wind surgery; handy stall but being 5lb 'wrong' tempers enthusiasm.

Made promising debut when fourth at Lingfield (6f, good to firm; just behind Feeraas) last month; didn't really build on that performance with third at Haydock (7f, good to firm) ten days ago but raced a bit too freely there and may benefit from this drop back in trip.

Improved upon his first two runs (6f/7f, good to firm) when going close at Chepstow (6f, good to soft) last month; doesn't seem straightforward (he's headstrong and hung right last time) but he could still be involved.

Promise in maidens on first three starts, notably when fifth at Epsom on first try at 7f (good; cheekpieces tried); subsequently gelded and below par in a Haydock nursery on only outing since (7f, good to soft); should fare better this time.

Has shown promise in defeat on all three starts (6f/7f); gelded since and this 150,000euros yearling is open to improvement on his nursery debut; he's Hollie Doyle's mount of the Archie Watson pair; on the shortlist.

Hung left throughout but still managed third at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) in May; similar form at evens when third of five at Chepstow (6f, good to soft) one month ago, meeting a little late interference but he needs to improve in the new cheekpieces over the extra 1f if he's to fare better today.

Front-runner who's resumed better than ever, backing up his Bath win with a Windsor near-miss off 1lb lower (inclined to hang left); might have been better drawn but can't be discounted for a yard that's won with four of its last five runners.
