Recent C&D winner that was back to something like is best at Newmarket last time. Being joint top weight makes life tough but possible the first-time cheekpieces will help him bring a little extra to the table. Worth of consideration if the market vibes are positive.

Consistent and likes this course - won well over C&D last month - and will be a big threat under just a 4lb higher mark. Wouldn't want any rain.

Has a bit to find with Toulson and, while he is respected, there has to be a suspicion that he will have to settle for a minor role once more.

In cracking form just and was just getting going when finishing third at Thirsk last week. The step up to 10f isn't expected to pose any problems and this fellow would be dangerous to leave out of the equation.

Won on debut over 7f at Kempton in June before finishing a respectable second on handicap debut over 1m at Newmarket. Well-bred and should be suited by this step up in trip and, given that he sets the standard on the official BHA figures, his weight-for-age allowance is going to be a very handy tool if he finds 10f to his liking.

Stamina not an issue but has a bit to find on balance and reverts to the Flat to face a very stiff test in this company.

Held by Toulson a couple of times already and disappointing that recent form has taken a dip. Others readily preferred on this occasion.

Breeding suggest the step up to 10f should suit but form in handicaps needs to be improved upon and likely this son of Dubawi will be looking on when alls said and done.

Forecasts

Don't Give Up (5/4), Chiefofchiefs (4/1), Toulson (5/1), Seniority (7/1), Celebration Day (10/1), New Agenda (25/1), Breden (25/1), Tomahawk Kid (25/1)

Verdict

Hard to escape the fact that DON'T GIVE UP has bags of scope for improvement and he can be fancied to take this latest step in his education in his stride. Chiefofchiefs will be suited by this step back to 10f and is rated as a serious contender, while Toulson already holds a few of these and makes the most appeal from the rest.
