3/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Windsor in August. Creditable third of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Windsor (10f, heavy) 40 days ago. Drop in trip/return to this track should suit, so he's a big player.

Forecasts

Maykir (3/1), Luscifer (10/3), Poetic Lilly (7/2), Total Distraction (5/1), Muqarred (6/1), Mr Minerals (16/1), Sweet Angel (18/1), It's A Sin (33/1), Youarefullofchat (40/1), Jackman (100/1)

MAYKIR looks in top form and returns to conditions that suit well, so he can get back to winning ways following an encouraging third at Windsor in late August. Muqarred knows this track well and should come on for his reappearance, so he's feared most ahead of Poetic Lilly.
