In good form this term including when narrowly beaten in a 20 runner handicap over C&D on good-to-firm ground last time out. Similar conditions forecast here and one to note despite a 7lb rise in the weights.
Finished fourth in a couple of highly competitive handicaps last month. Could finish only seventh here last time out however but remains open to improvement.
Won and placed on the AW during the winter. Well beaten in a valuable handicap here on his return from a break and likely to have improved for that effort.
Good effort when finishing sixth in a valuable C&D handicap just over two weeks ago. Held by a couple of his rivals on that form however.

Forecasts
Stormbringer (13/8), Kimifive (2/1), Staxton (9/4), Shaheen (7/2), Roundhay Park (4/1), Excellent Times (5/1), Chagatai (8/1), Helvetian (12/1)
STORMBRINGER had a number of these behind him when second in a valuable contest over C&D last time out and he can go one better in this sprint handicap. Staxton can finish runner-up on his return to turf while Roundhay Park who finished one place behind the selection last time out can take third.
