Ran well when finishing third in a 7f claimer at Wolverhampton in early July. Decent 7L fourth over the same C&D subsequently and is an interesting runner in this contest.

Well beaten in two starts since finishing a good third over 6f here in March. Has won under this rider in the past and is one to note on his return from a break.

14/1

Returned from a short break with a 1L victory over 1m at Lingfield in June. Well held in an amateur riders contest over an extended 1m at Wolverhampton the following month and is worth a check in the market on his return from a break.

Forecasts

Tavener (15/8), Art Echo (11/4), Caribbean Spring (7/2), Wild Flower (7/1), Treasured Company (8/1), Islay Mist (9/1), My Girl Maisie (10/1), Mime Dance (14/1), Uae Soldier (33/1)

TAVENER has a leading amateur in the saddle and having run well to place last time out he can go one better than when finishing runner-up that day. Second place can go to Islay Mist who can put a disappointing effort last time out behind her while third place can go the way of Caribbean Spring who is returning from a break.
