Recorded his seventh career success when victorious by ½L in a 6f handicap on good ground here last month. Raised 3lb for that success and is of interest dropping back in distance.

Twice a winner in four starts since joining this yard including over this C&D on good going last month. Impressive winner that day and is one to note despite a 9lb rise in the weights.

9/2
C&D winner and successful over 6f at Thirsk (good) in June. Good 1L second at Leicester (6f, good-to-firm) nine days later and holds strong claims despite a slightly disappointing effort on good-to-soft ground last time out.

Back to form with a victory over 5f at Newcastle on his penultimate start and acquitted himself well when 2¾L fifth in a 14 runner 6f handicap at York (good) a fortnight later. Interesting dropping back in distance.

C&D dinner but out of form in the main this campaign and handicap mark is falling as a result. Work to do if he's to reverse form with Mutabaahy from when the pair met on the all-weather at Newcastle last month.

Dual winner caught the eye when finishing 3L fourth to Longroom in a handicap over this C&D on good going when making his seasonal debut last month. Bold show looks likely in this contest.

Performed well on both starts this season including when beaten a nose over 6f at Thirsk (good-to-soft) at the end of June. Raised 3lb for that effort and drop in trip is no issue for this event.

Forecasts

Longroom (13/8), Fox Hill (9/2), Red Pike (6/1), Dapper Man (13/2), Mutabaahy (17/2), Dream House (11/1), Jill Rose (12/1)

Verdict

LONGROOM has looked back to his best since joining Paul Midgeley and he can defy a 9lb rise in the weights to register a victory in this small field sprint handicap. The selection can get the better of the filly Fox Hill who should appreciate the return to forecast good ground having proved a slight disappointment on softer going on her most recent start. Dream House, third to the selection on his most recent start can claim third.
