Looks a much better horse on AW tracks and last win came over C&D in September. A string of defeats in better grade, and mostly on turf, bring him down to the same handicap mark. One to consider.

Went close off this mark at Epsom in an amateur's race. Finished well clear of the third and returns to a track where he has a good record. Trainer and rider have been going well lately so another big run seems likely.

2-5 on AW tracks and represents a stable in form. Work to do off this mark, however rider 48-210 for the stable so not easy to rule out.

2-24 record and last success came off a 6lb lower mark. Has produced some good runs since but more needed in this company.

12-race maiden who has looked a tricky ride. Tailed-off last time on stable debut and looks to have a difficult task at the weights.

Has 17L to find with Whinging Willie on latest run at Epsom. Hard to see that being reversed even allowing for his better AW record

Has excelled on the AW this year and best to overlook his latest run on soft ground. Rider 12-41 for the stable and he is a leading contender.

Winner of a poor Chelmsford maiden and faced a difficult task on her handicap debut. Latest race developed into a sprint so best to forgive the effort, but hard to argue this mark is lenient based on what she has shown.

Scored at Lingield on his debut but has regressed with each run since and was last of six most recently. Hard to fancy unless there are positive market signals.

Forecasts

Arab Moon (2/1), Banish (7/2), Distant (13/2), Whinging Willie (8/1), Rubensian (8/1), Voski (9/1), Panko (10/1), Artful Rogue (14/1), Ravens Quest (14/1), Ardamir (33/1), Song Of Love (50/1)

Verdict

Distant is open to improvement but needs to find something more than we have seen so far even excusing her latest effort. Whinging Willie ran well enough last time to suggest he will be in the shake up but our vote goes to ARAB MOON. He has adapted well to AW surfaces this year and his rider has a good record for the yard. He has less to prove than most in this and he can land his fourth race of the campaign.
  1. Arab Moon
  2. Whinging Willie
  3. Banish
