Up 4lb and back up in trip having won at Sandown last time. This looks a suitable assignment for a horse who has run to a consistently good level recently and gets on well with the booked jockey.

Fair effort on handicap debut last time having not disgraced himself in her three runs in maidens. Seems to still be progressing and has to have a big chance here off the same mark.

Yet to get off the mark but creditable efforts in handicaps so far, some of which may have been deeper contests than this, and is capable of finding more in first time cheek pieces.

A winner at Beverley two starts ago (1m4f, good to firm), but has been hiked up the weights since and seemed to struggle with his new mark at Haydock latest.

Off the mark at Thirsk last time over this trip, and is up 3lb as a result. Doesn't seem to mind there being some give in the ground and seems much better over this distance.

Forecasts

Fire Leopard (5/2), Theglasgowwarrior (3/1), Bonnie Arlene (3/1), Tewafeedj (4/1), American Craftsman (13/2)

Verdict

This can to to FIRE LEOPARD, who ran a fine race to finish third on her handicap debut last time and is going to right way to get off the mark in what seems to be an easier race. She wasn't disgraced in her three runs in maidens and has a hood reapplied after it was missing last time; it will be interesting to see if that makes any difference but it is unlikely to do her chances any harm. Bonnie Arlene is one to consider up 4lb for a last time out win, while Theglasgowwarrior could have more to offer in first time cheek pieces.
