15/8
Three time course winner (one over C&D) who can be a little temperamental although he's been in good form of late even through his recent change of trainer. Two solid runs for this yard so far (without usual headgear) with a win coming over 6f (AW).

9/2
Already a winner over 6f she stepped up to 7f last time to record her second win (career-best) again on the AW at Lingfield. That was reward for a couple of decent efforts prior to that win; has a good turn of foot but back to 5f now.

Decisively confirmed the promise of his previous run when taking advantage of a lenient mark to score at Pontefract (5f, heavy) in an apprentice race. 9lb lower than for his last win he can run without a penalty here and looks to have a major chance.

10/1
All his wins so far have come on the AW off slightly lower marks than he faces today . Ran well enough on turf last time though at Windsor (5f, good) and although he faces a stiff enough task here he's not totally out of this.

Forecasts

Foxtrot Knight (6/5), Upavon (15/8), Pride Of Angels (9/2), Roundabout Magic (10/1)

Verdict

This should be a good opportunity for FOXTROT KNIGHT to follow-up his Pontefract win having already been running off a lenient mark and now finds himself even better treated the doubts being the quick return and the undulating track. Upavon has also been in good form of late as has Pride Of Angels although she has to cope with dropping back to the minimum trip having never won over 5f. Roundabout Magic looks likely to be the outsider of the party; he’s not totally ruled out but will find this tough.
