Seven race maiden but put in a career best effort when fourth of six over 1m2f at Ayr (soft) last time out. Races off a 3lb lower mark today and worth a check in the market on his return from a break.

Best effort this year came when finishing runner-up in a Leicester (soft) seller over this trip in May. Disappointing in handicaps the last twice and wears cheekpieces for the first time today.

Finished runner-up here last month and finished a decent third in a small field at Musselburgh (good-to-firm) thereafter. Disappointed upped in trip last time out and interesting back over 1m4f.

Well held in four outings for previous stable and a similar story on debut for this yard over 1m5f at Ballinrobe (yielding-to-soft) in June. Had less opportunities than many of his rivals and worth a check in the market here.

Maiden after six starts and held in handicap company the last three times. Most recent effort came when fifth of 12 at Wolverhampton over this trip and represents a stable with a 20% strike-rate (5/25) in recent weeks.

Well held on the Flat but ran well when finishing runner-up on hurdling debut at Uttoxeter (good-to-soft) three weeks ago. Wears cheekpieces for the first time and and an interesting contender from 1lb out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Elite Icon (11/4), Highway Robber (9/2), Mick The Poser (5/1), Stander (8/1), New Abbey Angel (17/2), Paddy's Rock (11/1), Tambour (12/1), Miller And Cook (14/1), Stardrifter (14/1), Schmooze (16/1), Hellavashock (16/1), Moon Over Rio (16/1)

Verdict

STANDER put in his best effort so far when finishing a well held second on heavy ground at Ffos Las last time out. The selection was making his handicap debut on that occasion but showed enough to suggest that he can take a handicap of this nature. John McConnell's charge can be given most to do by Stardrifter who ran well here earlier in the season while the consistent Highway Robber can claim third in this concluding contest.
