Winner of a three runner novice event over 5f at Sandown (soft) just under a year ago. Struggled in three subsequent starts however and others make more appeal in this contest.
Shown decent form in finishing third on his two most recent starts including when beaten 2½L in a novice contest over 7f at Kempton in early January. One to note dropping in trip on handicap debut.
Victorious over this trip at Newbury (good-to-firm) in July last year. Disappointing thereafter however and is making his debut for new connections having been purchased for 12,000 gns at the sales last October.
Built on a couple of promising placed efforts when making a winning handicap debut over an extended 5f at Bath (good-to-soft) last September. One for the shortlist racing off a 2lb higher mark on seasonal and AW debut.
Ran well when finishing third in a 6f novice race at Kempton last September but struggled on handicap debut at Chelmsford in November when last in action. Probably best watched at present.
Has registered two promising efforts in novice company to date most recently when 3L second over 5f at Southwell in March. Hails from a top yard and is of interest stepping back up in distance on handicap debut.
In good form since switching to handicaps earlier this year following up two second place finishes with a 1L victory in a C&D handicap in March. Strong claims of following up despite a 5lb rise in the weights.
Impressive winner of a 6f handicap at Chelmsford in August but form tailed off in the autumn and he finished a well beaten ninth on seasonal debut over 7f here in March. Drop in trip looks likely to suit.
Placed three times from six starts most recently when beaten 2½L over 5f at Southwell at the start of January. Struggled over this trip at the same venue subsequently and others hold more obvious claims.
Forecasts
Intrepid Italian (15/8), Bayar (3/1), Almqvist (3/1), Gleeds Girl (8/1), Champagne Supanova (16/1), Alfies Watch (25/1), Alex Gracie (33/1), Wentworth Amigo (33/1), Fantom Force (33/1)
BAYAR has placed third on each of his last two starts and he can make a winning handicap debut in this 6f handicap. The selection has proved he stays further and he can get the better of his rivals with Almqvist taken to claim second spot having won here back in March. Third place can go the way of Gleeds Girl who is another to have won on her most recent start.
- Bayar
- Almqvist
- Gleeds Girl
