Still to win and had plenty of chances now; not been seeing it out over 7f lately, though, latterly in a hood and this mark is surely within range if things fall his way.

It took him a long time to get off the mark but he has won three of his last six starts and two of his last three; form of latest Pontefract (6f, good) success couldn't be working out much better (second, third and fourth all won next time) and a 3lb rise is no issue; obvious chance.

Unplaced elsewhere on final three starts for Ben Haslam but wasn't running badly and three out of his last four wins have come at this venue; on a career-low mark and could play a leading role back here in a first-time tongue-tie on his stable debut.

Frequent slow starter who was never involved at Redcar last time but he was placed over C&D (good to firm) last month and he won at Catterick (5f, good) in April; has claims if he can get away on terms, and his penultimate win was in this race last year.
