Has been kept busy so far this season and won over C&D on good-to-firm ground at the start of last month. Run well a couple of times since including when third at Chester (soft) over 6f last time and an interesting runner off top weight.

Victorious over 1m on the AW at Southwell last December. Races off a 6lb higher mark here and worth a check in the market given that he's won following a long break in the past.

Pulled up in a selling hurdle last month and well held at York over 7f on good ground subsequently. Wears a visor today and others make more appeal today.

Placed twice in recent starts including when third over 6f on the AW at Lingfield at the end of last month. Races off the same mark here and interesting if reproducing that effort.

Ran well to finish runner-up on his debut for this stable over 7f at Southwell on the AW in March but slightly disappointing when only fourth there subsequently. Return to 7f should suit and worth a check in the market here.

Best effort this season came when finishing runner-up over 1m on good-to-firm ground here last month. Disappointing since however including when favourite at Carlisle (soft) last time and others make more appeal.

Held in three starts so far in 2017 including in blinkers and eyeshield for the first time at Carlisle (soft) last time out. Wears cheekpieces for the first time today and now rated 1lb lower than for her sole success.

Placed twice on the AW this spring but could finish only fifth over 1m here on good-to-firm ground last month. Has placed off this mark in the past and looking for her first win at the 15th attempt today.

Recording her second victory when winning over 6f at Ayr (good) earlier this month. Races off a 4lb higher mark today and well beaten on her only previous start over 7f.

Forecasts

Tavener (7/2), Dark Profit (9/2), Crazy Tornado (9/2), Miss Goldsmith (6/1), Flinty Fell (7/1), Sea Of Green (10/1), Popsies Joy (10/1), Big Storm Coming (12/1), Top of The Bank (16/1), Order Of Service (20/1)

Verdict

TAVENER has been running well this season and was successful off a 7lb lower mark over this C&D last month. The selection ran well on ground that was probably softer than ideal at Chester last time out and he is taken to claim this concluding contest at the chief expense of Top Of The Bank while Dark Profit and Big Storm Coming are others likely to be involved in the finish.
  1. Tavener
  2. Top of The Bank
  3. Dark Profit
