Got off the mark in what looked like a fairly weak event at Wolverhampton last time out. Won well enough but the handicapper doesn't appear to have taken any chances with him.

6/4
One win from nine starts. Raced wide last time out appearing to have an issue cornering the turn for home but stayed on for third and today's switch back to a straight track ought to be a positive (sole win came on straight track at Yarmouth).

Course winner who appeared to over-race out in front last time and drop in trip should aid his cause in that respect but needs to settle better and others have more pressing claims.

Won a Ripon seller in May but finished last of 17 at Doncaster when last seen, probably doing too much too soon. Makes AW debut today and could be a player if the new surface brings out improvement.

Unplaced on six starts to date including an attempt over C&D last time out and the gelding looks to have plenty on his hands once again.

7/1
Improved for the switch to handicaps last time out and talented claimer booked. If he comes on for that run he may improve past his rivals.

Forecasts

Erissimus Maximus (6/4), Cajmere (5/2), White Royale (10/3), Royal Celebration (7/1), Oh So Dandy (14/1), Zig Zag Girl (40/1)

Verdict

ROYAL CELEBRATION could be well-handicapped judged on his run last time out. He appeared to commit for a home a little to early but still stuck on well for third and the winner has come out and won again since. Erissimus Maximus returns to a flat track today and may have got closer to the winner last time out if he hadn't raced as wide. White Royale is a previous course winner and shouldn't be underestimated if the drop back in trip works the oracle. 1. Royal Celebration 2. Erissimus Maximus 3. White Royale
