First run since leaving Peter Hedger when below-form fifth of 9 in handicap here (8f, AW) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and course winner but needs a couple of these to falter.

Latest win over 7f at Wolverhampton and encouraging sixth of 10 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f) 10 days ago when travelled strongly long way. In great nick for new yard so interesting back at 7f now.

Both his wins have come over 6f and looked in need of run after 5 months off when eleventh in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 20 days ago. Stamina still not proven here.

Poor maiden who wasn't disgraced in blinkers when fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 50/1) 20 days ago. In very good hands but she needs to find more.

Form is hit and miss but (cheekpieces on) one of better efforts when second of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 16 days ago. Not ruled out if headgear has desired effect again.

Forecasts

Global Acclamation (18/5), Mrs Benson (11/2), Diamond Cottage (11/2), Dreamboat Annie (13/2), At Your Service (7/1), Mr Mac (15/2), Deftera Lad (15/2), Ower Bush Mills (12/1), Rodney Le Roc (18/1), Pure Purfection (22/1), Captain Marmalade (22/1), Connemera Queen (28/1), Trouser The Cash (28/1), Legal Mind (50/1)

Verdict

DEFTERA LAD has been revitalised for the move to Sylvester Kirk's yard so is fancied to go in again now he drops back in trip having moved smoothly for a long way over 1m at Windsor last time. Dreamboat Annie is another who arrives in great nick so is sure to provide a stern test, while Diamond Cottage and Global Acclamation are two others worth a second look in an open handicap.

  1. DEFTERA LAD (IRE)
  2. DREAMBOAT ANNIE
  3. DIAMOND COTTAGE
