Ten race maiden but finished third in handicap company the last twice. Most recent of those efforts came when beaten 4L over 1m2f at Doncaster (good) last month and races off a 1lb lower mark here.

Finished third the last twice most recently when beaten 1¼L over 1m2f at Haydock (good) in June. Had previously filled the same position over 1m4f at Doncaster (soft) and races off the same mark here for a stable who can boast a 26% strike-rate in recent weeks (10/39).

Winner over 1m2f at Beverley (good) in June and put a disappointing effort next time out behind her when finishing third over the same C&D on good-to-soft ground last time. Interesting runner in this contest.

Forecasts

Azzir (6/4), Deinonychus (11/4), Lexington Law (3/1), Katebird (5/1)

Verdict

AZZIR can register his third victory by taking this four runner handicap contest. The selection ran well when finishing a close third off this mark last time out and with the ground likely to suit he can see of top weight Lexington Law who has finished third the last twice including over 1m2f last time out. Deinonychus hails from a yard who have been in the doldrums of late but did managed to finish runner-up at Leicester last week and he is taken to get the better of Katebird in the battle for third.
