Successful four times in the past and returned to form when finishing runner-up off this mark over C&D last time out. Step up in trip appeared to suit on that occasion and he is an interesting runner today.

Forecasts

Bollin Ted (11/4), Tommy's Secret (3/1), Neptune Star (4/1), Unonothinjonsnow (4/1), Bicolour (8/1), Gunner Moyne (10/1), Estibdaad (12/1), California Cliffs (12/1), Dixon (14/1), Hidden Stash (25/1), Bridal March (28/1), Tawfeer (66/1), Bowsers Bold (66/1)

BOLLIN TED has been in good form on turf this summer and he can defy a 3lb rise for his latest victory by winning on his AW debut today. The selection justified favouritism last time out and can get the better of Tommy's Secret who appeared to appreciate the step up in distance when second here last time out. Of the remainder Bicolour represents a stable with an 18% strike-rate (3/18) of late and she can claim third today.
