Put a disappointing effort behind him when finishing runner-up at Hamilton (6f, good-to-firm) last time out. Interesting if repeating that effort.

In good form so far this turf season and finished a good fourth over C&D on good-to-firm going last time out. Likely to run his race once more.

Fair fifth over 7f at Chelmsford on his penultimate outing but disappointed last time and looking for his first victory at the 15th time of asking.

Decent effort when beaten 2L over 5f on good-to-soft ground here on handicap and seasonal debut in April. Interesting upped in trip.

Beaten a neck into second over 5f at Beverley (good-to-firm) in May. Gelded and changed stables since finishing well beaten over the same trip later that month.

Forecasts

Born To Finish (2/1), Choosey (7/2), Nibras Again (9/2), Meshardal (5/1), Ninjago (11/2), Glorious Politics (12/1), Tiger Lyon (16/1), Razin' Hell (25/1)

Verdict

BORN TO FINISH looks capable of defying his revised mark in this 6f handicap event. The selection has been running well this season and with the trip and ground both likely to be in his favour he can get the better of his rivals with Ninjago, another to finish runner-up last time out capable of getting the better of Meshardal in the battle for second.
  1. Born To Finish
  2. Ninjago
  3. Meshardal
