Won a nice looking maiden on his debut as a juvenile for Richard Hannon but has never really built on that and his efforts on the AW during the winter where largely disappointing. Debut for a new yard here.
Won three times over 7f (here and Wolverhampton twice) around a year ago and has slipped back to an exploitable mark following a run of eight races without a win. Has to be of some interest in a first-time tongue tie.
Made all to land a Dundalk maiden in December for previous yard. He produced two decent efforts for this yard initially but took a step backwards over C&D last time when finding little. More needed.
Gained a 10th career win, and a third over this C&D, when scoring from a 4lb lower mark in February but wasn't at his best behind Foi Gras at Chelmsford latest. More in favour here, respected.
Just two wins from 31 starts but has been running consistently well for this yard and finished a respectable 1L third behind Caledonia Laird over 7f at Wolverhampton earlier this week. Likely to mount another bold bid.
Eight-time winner on the turf but his record on the AW reads 1-23. Not sighted since a below par effort over 6f at Epsom in September and appears to have his work cut out.
Three times a winner here - once over the C&D - and is maintaining his form well. Lost no caste in defeat when third behind Locommotion over C&D last month but may need mark to drop before winning again.
Three-time winner from 43 starts and arrives here on a lengthy losing streak, though has been knocking on the door of late, finishing second to Fleeting Glimpse over 6f at Kempton latest. Yet to win over 7f though.
Forecasts
Tavener (9/4), Polar Kite (7/2), Flying Fantasy (4/1), Bookmaker (6/1), Torment (15/2), Virile (8/1), World Of Good (16/1), Perfect Pastime (25/1)
The likes of Taverner, Bookmaker and Virile all bring solid recent form to the table but FLYING FANTASY has dropped to an eminently winnable mark and hit a fantastic run of form around this time last year. The introduction of a tongue tie could be just the fillip he needs to spark him back into life.
