J: Charlie Bennett

T: Jim Boyle

Won this race last year and he recorded his fourth C&D win when scoring on soft last month; no joy under a penalty (good) last time but that may have come too soon and he's 3lb lower here on this return to slow ground; dangerous if he can bounce back.

Just did enough to score over C&D (soft) off reduced mark eight days ago; might be a shade vulnerable under 4lb penalty today but will be fine on the faster ground and is evidently in good nick.

Form & Verdict
Failed to get home over 1m last time; justified favouritism over C&D (good to firm) earlier in August, taking his 7f record to 331, and the runner-up gives that form a solid look; respected back in this scenario.

Came good at Brighton (7f, good to firm) last month, on eighth run, and did very well to go close on soft ground there ten days ago, having been badly hampered; back in action before 1lb rise takes effect; likely contender.

Ran well in AW maiden on final 2yo start; has come up short in Class 5 handicaps in 2024 but this drop in grade, combined with reduced mark, may prompt a bigger effort; market support should be heeded.

Seven-race maiden; gave good account when close third of five at Brighton (7f, soft) last week but finished just behind On Song (who had been badly hampered) there and meets that rival on the same terms here.

Went very close in classified event over C&D (good to firm) in June; has failed to repeat that form since and latest defeat took record to 0-23; chance depends on how well he responds to new headgear.

Ready win in a 6f AW handicap in July and ran well in defeat on his next two starts (AW/good turf); last of five but not beaten far at Brighton in September; this perhaps too competitive.
