8/11

1 win from 3 runs this year. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this course (7.2f, 2/1) 6 days ago, keeping on well. Remains low-mileage and fancied to go well again under a penalty.

14/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, didn't need to improve when dead-heating in 12-runner handicap at this C&D 22 days ago, joined line. Can go well again with a repeat.

33/1

18/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 19 days ago, weakening 1f out. Significant step up in trip needs to bring about improvement but worth a check in the betting for shrewd yard.

Form: 907050

20/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap (14/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 16 days ago. That was his first start for 8 months and this should reveal more.

9/2

Twelve runs since last win in 2019. Respectable third of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 5/1) 27 days ago. Strike rate is a concern but he's a live player nevertheless.

Forecasts

Doctor Nuno (8/11), G For Gabrial (9/2), Aegeus (10/1), Olivers Pursuit (14/1), Black Medick (14/1), Kyllachy Dragon (14/1), Global Acclamation (16/1), Dame Joan (20/1), Aqaareb (33/1), Baashiq (33/1), Herons Nest (33/1), House Deposit (40/1), French Mix (100/1)

DOCTOR NUNO is less exposed than most and got off the mark in good style over shorter here 6 days ago, staying on well to get on top inside final 1f. Wisely turned out under a penalty, he's fancied to make a bold bid to follow up. G For Gabrial and Global Acclamation are feared, along with Black Medick.
