Victorious in first time cheekpieces when winning over 1m2f at Brighton (good-to-firm) in June. Well held second over the same C&D off this mark subsequently but remains of interest in this.

Ran well when finishing third of nine over 1m4f at Chepstow (soft) last month and unseated rider early on over hurdles two days later. Would prefer ground softer than is forecast here.

Cheekpieces applied in recent starts and ran well when runner-up over 1m4f at Chepstow (good) last time. Races off a 1lb higher mark here and others make more appeal.

11 race maiden and well held in three starts in handicap company on the AW earlier this year. More needed if he's to break his maiden in this.

Forecasts

St Andrews (11/4), Medalla De Oro (9/2), Incredible Dream (11/2), Let's Be Happy (6/1), Chunkyfunkymonkey (7/1), Tynecastle Park (8/1), Solent Meads (17/2), Dancing Dragon (12/1), Whipcrackaway (16/1), Cornelius (50/1)

Verdict

CHUNKYFUNKYMONKEY has been in good form of late including when winning over 1m2f at Yarmouth in June. The selection steps up in trip here having won over 1m1f last time out but shapes as if the extra distance here will suit and can see off St Andrews who finished runner-up at Chepstow over 1m4f last time with Let's Be Happy taken to finish third having ran a fair race when second off this mark at Brighton last time.
