Broke his maiden at Brighton when winning a 1m2f handicap on good ground by 4L when wearing cheekpiecees (retained since) for the first time. Followed that up with a neck defeat over 1m4f at the same venue off this 8lb higher mark and likely to run well once more.
Four times a winner so far including on the AW over 1m2f here in April. Beaten 2L off a 1lb higher mark than she races off today when second at Chepstow (good-to-firm) over the same distance next time and returns to the Flat here having pulled up over hurdles at Worcester last time out.
Sole success in 21 career starts came on debut at Salisbury (good-to-firm) in July 2014. Best effort this term came when runner-up over an extended 1m3f at Bath (firm) in a four runner event in May but disappointing the last twice.
Victorious on his final start for Robert Eddery in a seller on the AW over 1m4f here in first time cheekpieces last December. Ran well a couple of times on turf earlier this season including over 1m6f here when third last month. Probably found the 2m trip too far last time and an interesting runner.
Well beaten in all three starts so far this year including when last of five in first time blinkers (retained) over C&D earlier this month. Handicap mark slipping as a result and now rated 9lb lower than for her initial outing in handicap company.
Successful three times so far including twice for this stable in 2016. Well beaten over hurdles on his two most recent outings last autumn and probably best watched on his seasonal debut in this.
Forecasts
Hepplewhite (2/1), Plymouth Sound (5/2), Impressive Day (3/1), Rum Swizzle (8/1), Hurricane Volta (12/1), Tuolumne Meadows (12/1)
RUM SWIZZLE pulled up over hurdles on her most recent outing but had previous finished runner-up on turf at Chepstow and she is taken to register her third success on this surface today. The selection is taken to get the better of Impressive Day who carries top weight here and was a winner of her penultimate outing while Hepplewhite can take third dropping in trip here.
