Successful seven times including over this C&D in June 2017. Struggled when tenth over 7f at Redcar (good) on last months seasonal debut. Market support would be notable racing off his last winning mark back down in distance.

Victorious over this trip at Lingfield on the AW in March but finished a well held ninth at Ripon (6f, good-to-soft) on his return to action recently. Worth a check in the market in this race.

Wore cheekpieces (retained) for the first time when finishing a good third over this trip at Hamilton (good-to-soft) recently. Races off the same mark here and is one to note in this contest.

Signs of ability in three starts at two including when 13L fifth over 6f at Ripon (good-to-soft) last September. Gelded since and is worth a check in the market on seasonal and handicap debut.

Making his debut for this yard when finishing 7L fourth in a 7f handicap at Chepstow (good) just over a week ago. Returning from over a year off the track that day and is a notable runner dropping in distance.

Maiden after four starts and struggled when beaten 19½L in a 6f event on handicap debut at Hamilton (good-to-soft) recently. Blinkers worn for the first time that day are replaced with a visor (first time) for this event.

Fair fourth in a 5f handicap at Redcar (good) when returning from a break recently. Has placed over this trip in the past but looks up against it racing from out of the handicap.

Well held in two starts this campaign most recently when 9L tenth over 5f at Beverley (good) a fortnight ago. Others hold more obvious claims racing from out of the handicap with blinkers that were absent last time out returning for this race.

Slowly away but caught the eye in finishing 2¼L fifth in an AW handicap over this trip at Lingfield last month. Racing from out of the handicap here and is looking for a first turf triumph at the 11th time of asking.

Nine race maiden struggled in a first time visor (blinkers return here with a hood added for the first time) in a 1m handicap at Southwell in December. Worth a check in the market down in trip.

Forecasts

Champagne Bob (3/1), Prissy Missy (7/2), Extrasolar (6/1), Mightaswellsmile (13/2), Comvida (13/2), Lucky Beggar (15/2), Highland Acclaim (14/1), Viking Way (14/1), Quercus (16/1), Loulin (16/1), Champagne Mondays (20/1), Evora Knights (50/1)

Verdict

CHAMPAGNE BOB ran well on his return from over a year off the track last time and he can register a victory on his second start for this yard by taking this competitive looking sprint handicap. The selection can get the better of Loulin who placed third on his latest outing while third place can go to Extrasolar who has run well here in the past.
