Recorded a third career victory when winning over C&D last time out. Raised 3lb for that victory and looks likely to run well once more.

Forecasts

Nick Vedder (5/4), Deansgate (5/1), Pickett's Charge (11/2), Equiano Springs (6/1), Thello (10/1), Rey Loopy (10/1), Fake News (16/1), Mudawwan (16/1), Final Frontier (28/1), Dirchill (40/1), Tathmeen (66/1)

Verdict

The return of the tongue tie combined with the drop back in distance can see MUDAWWAN record a second C&D victory of the season in this competitive looking 7f handicap. The selection races off a mark 3lb higher than for his latest victory and can get the better of Pickett's Charge who was a C&D winner in August while third place can go to Nick Vedder who has been running well over 6f here in recent starts.
  1. Mudawwan
  2. Pickett's Charge
