Not seen out for a while but did shape than his final placing when last seen at Haydock over a mile last September. Has shown some useful form over hurdles and be interesting to see what he can do here back from a break.
Not one who you could really take to as he's often slow away and looks an awkward ride. Raced well off the pace last time out at York over 1m4f and raced very freely after being slow away and comes with risks attached.
From a yard in good form he's hard to win with overall but did shape well last time out with another consistent run over a mile at Leicester. Dropped 2lb for that run but probably summed up by his mark.
Won an AW mile maiden last year but failed to build on that on his handicap debut also on the AW at Kempton. Now back on turf with the tongue-tie on for the first time with the mark eased 3lb (78 still look tough) and may find this 1m1f trip a test.

Forecasts
Rotherwick (5/4), Red Rannagh (13/8), Craftsmanship (4/1), See The Rock (6/1), Maraakib (7/1), Blue Revelation (8/1)
With a couple of these – Red Rannagh and Rotherwick – looking tough to win with this looks a decent opportunity for MARAAKIB to get back to winning ways over a more suitable trip. See The Rock is an unknown quantity and could be of interest if fit and ready to go with Blue Revelation needing to find a little more to win off this mark.
