Winner of three races and ran well to finish third over 2m at Chepstow (good-to-firm) when last in action 16 months ago. Probably best watched on his return following a long absence.

Maiden winner over this trip at Kempton in March and successful following a stewards enquiry having dead-heated for first at Leicester (1m2f, good-to-soft) in October. Well beaten at Lingfield since and this return to 1m4f should suit.

8/1
Winning for the sixth time when victorious over an extended 2m here last week. Escapes a penalty for that apprentice handicap success and is one to note dropping back in trip.

Forecasts

Spinning Melody (7/2), Take Two (9/2), Lungarno Palace (6/1), Star Story (7/1), Omotesando (8/1), Throckley (8/1), Thistimenextyear (10/1), Island Brave (12/1), Villette (14/1), Maifalki (20/1), Tangramm (25/1), Azam (33/1)

Verdict

OMOTESANDO escapes a penalty for his recent success over an extended 2m here and having run well over shorter in the past he can take this competitive contest for Oliver Greenall. The selection has jockey Charlie Bennett in the saddle once more and can see off Villette who can put a disappointing effort last time out behind her by finish second today while Maifalki who has won both of his starts at this track can finish third on this occasion.
  1. Omotesando
