Didn't run too badly over 1m here on penultimate start but will have to settle better than last run at this trip to figure.
Won here in 2017 and comes here at the top of his game with wins earlier in the year but off since Wolverhampton win in February and stiff task taking on younger rivals in bid for his hat-trick.
Both career wins gained here and his win after resumption shows that this is now his optimum trip. Weak in market when racing alone in the straight at Chepstow and is better than shown then.
Three C&D wins and his second last time when splitting a pair of subsequent winners was close to a career best. Very game in a finish and should again run his race.
Got off the mark at Wolverhampton and went close to following up at Windsor but needs to bounce back after tame effort at Sandown since and others make more appeal.
Dual C&D winner and back on a very fair mark on this surface though without a win since April 2019 and others have more potential.
Didn't show a great deal in trio of maidens but was a different proposition when bolting up by 20L at Pontefract last week, making all and landing a gamble in the process. 18lb well in despite his penalty and clearly the one to beat.
Better at Southwell and will make more appeal when returning to that venue later in the season while also having stamina to prove.
Likes it here and bolted up earlier in the month at the track. 8lb rise makes his task a deal harder and this is a much stronger race so needs another step forward.
Two of his juvenile runs showed ability but both runs this season have been poor and left Mark Johnston for 7,000 gns since last seen. Needs to bounce back for new yard.

Forecasts
Whisper Not (30/100), Subliminal (9/1), Deleyll (11/1), Cuttin' Edge (12/1), Famous Dynasty (14/1), Avorisk Et Perils (16/1), Prince Llyr (18/1), Ravens Ark (20/1), Sing Out Loud (25/1), Bayston Hill (28/1), Shaffire (33/1), Morning Shadow (40/1), Oblate (80/1)
The all the way victory of WHISPER NOT last week was a revelation, and clearly expected according to the market and he is impossible to oppose in this company. Subliminal is a tough and consistent who could be the each way value against the favourite with Ravens Ark of some interest now handicapping.
