Lightly-raced winner. C&D winner. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 11/2) 16 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time.
2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Bath in July. 11/10, good second of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm) 30 days ago, faring best of those held up. Shortlist material.
Similar form all 3 starts, third of 5 in novice event at Chester (12.3f, good) 13 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Not taken lightly.
Thrice-raced maiden. Improved again when third of 4 on handicap debut (5/1) at Newbury (10f, good) 50 days ago. Should have more to offer.
Lightly-raced maiden. Third of 4 in novice event (2/1) at Lingfield (10f, AW), having run of race. Off 7 months. Makes handicap debut.
Winner at Windsor in July. Bit below form fifth of 10 in handicap (evens) at Sandown (10f, good to firm) 25 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Can bounce back.
Lightly-raced maiden. Looked more straightforward when good third of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (10f, good to firm, 10/1) 34 days ago, well positioned. Makes polytrack debut.
Lightly-raced maiden. Good fourth of 8 on handicap debut at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm, 11/2) 30 days ago. Yard in great form.
Lightly-raced maiden. Fourteenth of 15 in handicap (25/1) at Haydock (10.2f, good) 16 days ago. Could bounce back returned to AW.

Red Poppy (10/3), Motamayiz (18/5), Molinari (5/1), Colonize (11/2), Gold Ribbon (8/1), Frankly Mr Shankly (10/1), Kimberley (10/1), La Foglietta (12/1), Willingly (25/1), Top Drop (50/1)
MOTAMAYIZ conceded both a positional advantage and first run to a subsequent winner when runner-up on his first attempt at this trip at Yarmouth last month and is taken to go one better. Red Poppy is going the right way and rates the main threat ahead of Molinari, who had excuses at Sandown.
