Really consistent performer on AW in Britain, runner-up at Wolverhampton recently and very interesting first appearance at this venue.

In super form around here this winter but this mark last time out just caught up with him when unable to go with Red Avenger.

Always doing enough having hit the front to complete C&D hat-trick last time (Chestnut Fire third). Up again in the ratings but no certainty it will halt him.

Solid run when sixth in a blanket finish behind Ishebayorgrey here last month, goes up to the mile now and one to consider.

Has been behind Red Avenger in each of his three C&D wins of late, getting help at the weights but still wouldn't suggest he'll reverse the form.

Step up in trip didn't really pan out on return from short break a week ago, previously been running well at the mile and the return to this trip is a positive.

Has won over 6f here this season, been sprinting of late which didn't really work out and this trip might push his stamina to the limit.

Won a couple of races around here in the summer but no match for Ishebayorgrey last month and hard to see a victory in what looks a competitive line-up.

Forecasts

Red Avenger (7/4), Chestnut Fire (9/2), Supersta (5/1), Reckless Lad (7/1), Northern Surprise (8/1), Ishebayorgrey (8/1), Mcguigan (10/1), Secret Wizard (14/1), Geological (20/1), Elusive Guest (25/1)

Verdict

Ishebayorgrey is sure to give his running but the most recent evidence suggests the handicapper has mastered him for now, with similar sentiments regarding Chestnut Fire. It is dangerous to oppose Red Avenger on the back of his recent hat-trick and by no means did he look finished when winning by a cosy neck last time but he goes up in the weights again and British raider SUPERSTA might be the one to halt him. He's got a terrific AW record and should give a big performance first time out at this venue on the back of a good sighter at Wolverhampton. Northern Surprise is one to consider for the minor honours having been close-up sixth here over a furlong shorter last month. 1. Supersta 2. Red Avenger 3. Chestnut Fire
