Form & Verdict
Only 1-24 and runner-up for an 11th time when unable to cope with a progressive winner at Lingfield; gets in off the same mark and, crucially given running style, he'll get a strong pace to chase; respected with Ethan Jones taking away 5lb this time.

Good record at this track, winning on five of his 14 visits (placed on five other occasions); third over C&D last month and latest Chelmsford effort wasn't too bad given he had to work hard early to lead and was caught wider than ideal; handicapper easing his burden; one to take seriously.

Form figures don't look great but they are misleading as she's had a couple of duff draws and heavy ground to contend with; went off too quickly at Southwell last time and now back on the mark off which she bossed a better race at Haydock in June; one to be interested in from handy draw.
