Won over hurdles at Plumpton in September but showed vastly improved form switched back to the Flat at Windsor (good) last week when landing a bit of a gamble in style. 5lb penalty alone won't stop him if in the same mood.
Multiple winner in the past and although he went without a win in 2019, his mark has dropped and his second last week here wasn't without hope. Was beaten 5L but finished clear of the remainder and that was a step in the right direction.
First time cheekpieces brought about a touch of improvement when 3L second of seven on AW at Lingfield on Friday and not surprisingly tried again here. Lightly raced so may be more to offer.
Ideally wants a strong pace to aim at and it worked perfectly for him when springing a 22/1 shock at Lingfield last summer but not sure to get the race run to suit.
Not quite at his best at Chelmsford recently on first run for this yard but is happier back on turf and very well treated if able to bounce back.
Just a single win to his name, at Chelmsford last winter and is still above that mark. Has had just the three turf runs, showing form just once, and others make more appeal.
Still a maiden and poor form in two runs in truncated season last term. Needs to improve a good deal for new yard to be of interest.
Sole win was gained here in 2018 but beaten several times at this venue since and din't show enough on come back last week to be of interest.
Runner-up at Brighton last year but failed to build on that and needs to eke out improvement from somewhere to break his duck at the 21st attempt.
No sign of ability in trio of 7f maidens at huge prices and the blinkers that are now tried need to spark massive improvement from 7lb out of the weights.

Forecasts
Limelighter (11/8), Sir Plato (3/1), Mabo (9/2), Levanter (5/1), Bristol Missile (11/2), Tally's Son (20/1), J'ouvert (25/1), Good Luck Charm (40/1), Triple First (40/1), Don't Cry About It (50/1), Blue Battalion (80/1)
LIMELIGHTER looked well ahead of his mark when scoring with plenty in hand at Windsor a week ago and providing this doesn't come too soon, he can defy the penalty. Sir Plato showed a bit more when second here recently and may prove the main threat with Mabo a threat to all in his current form if he can carry it over to turf.
