Irreverent¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 88| D

13/2

Dual winner in 2019 who signalled he's ready to go in again when excellent second of 11 in 1m handicap at Newcastle 15 days ago. Form has already been franked so big player on polytrack debut

Pistoletto²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Darragh Keenan⁽³⁾| T: J Ryan| OR: 90

80/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2019, and cheekpieces tried when only ninth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 18/1) 23 days ago. Significantly up in trip but needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 389099

(3)

Astro King²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 87| BF

3/1

Impressive debut winner at Wolverhampton and looked firmly on the up until only third of 5 in 10f handicap at Doncaster on turf bow 22 days ago. Capable of better back on AW so bold showing on cards.

Form: 123

Forecasts

Plantadream (9/4), Astro King (3/1), Dashing Roger (13/2), Young Fire (13/2), Irreverent (13/2), Oh This Is Us (9/1), Silent Attack (14/1), Pistoletto (80/1)

A useful handicap but ready preference is for IRREVERENT who posted a fine recent effort when runner-up at Newcastle and is weighted to go one better now with that form looking strong. Sir Michael Stoute's unexposed Kingman colt Astro King rates the chief threat now he gets back on the AW and both Silent Attack and Dashing Roger can have a say too.
