Dual winner last year including over 6f at Newbury (good-to-soft) in October. Gelded during the winter and has failed to figure in two valuable turf handicaps this campaign.
Returning from a break when winning a 7f novice race here at the end of April. Good 2L third over 1m on handicap debut here subsequently and interesting to see how he fares down in trip.
C&D winner in a novice event last October. Placed twice later that season and drops in grade here having finished 7¼L tenth in a Listed race over this C&D two months ago when last in action.
Victorious by 4L in a novice race over this distance at Wolverhampton in May. Decent 4L third upped to 7f at Thirsk (good-to-soft) on only subsequent start and is of interest on handicap debut.
Unbeaten in two AW starts including when scoring by ½L over C&D last time out. previously disappointed in a 6f novice race at Doncaster (good) and he is worth a check in the market on first start in handicaps.
Winner of both AW starts so far most recently by ¾L over this trip in a novice race at Kempton in April. Beaten on turf twice subsequently including when 4¼L third over this trip at Leicester (good-to-firm) at the end of May.
Unbeaten in two starts this season following up a neck victory over 5f at Windsor (good-to-firm) in May with a ½L success over this trip at Doncaster (soft) on handicap debut last month. Interesting despite a 3lb rise in the weights.
Forecasts
Intuitive (9/4), Alkaraama (7/2), San Carlos (5/1), Celtic Manor (6/1), Luxor (6/1), Heath Charnock (8/1), Roxy Art (33/1)
ALKARAAMA represents a top yard and he can regain the winning thread back down in trip following a good placed effort over further last time out. Second place can go to Celtic Manor who was a winner last time out and receives weight from all of his rivals here while Luxor can claim third under top weight.
