Landed 3m Doncaster handicap last term but followed encouraging Ffos Las reappearance with modest fourth at Stratford. Strong in betting and duly bounced back when second at Southwell since.
|
Won as he liked on debut for this yard at Ffos Las before following up in similar style at Lingfield, both under this rider. Up another 13 lb but hat-trick looks a strong possibility on current form.
|
Signed off last season with a career-best win at Wetherby (24.2f, soft) but well held both starts this season. Has had a wind op.
|
Dual winner in points who improved to land pair of 3m handicaps at Ffos Las this autumn. Far from disgraced under a penalty back down in trip there since and remains of interest back up in distance.
|
Back on track when placed all 3 starts for new yard, 13½ lengths third to Silent Man in handicap chase at Ffos Las latest. 20 lb better off with winner here so should be on the premises again.
|
Modest hurdler but set to do better over fences having gone close both starts this season after 19 months off. Player.
|
Six-race maiden under Rules who ran a moody race at Ffos Las on debut for new yard last month following a 631-day layoff.
|
Positive start to last season, winning twice, and all the better for comeback run when runner-up at Lingfield. Opposable back up in class, however.
|
Ended 2019/20 in a lull and he offered little both starts this season. 6 lb out of handicap.

Forecasts
Silent Man (10/11), Don Herbager (7/2), Summit Like Herbie (13/2), Robin Of Sherwood (10/1), Game Line (12/1), Onurbike (20/1), Newlands Cross (25/1), Itsamanslife (25/1), Royal Act (50/1)
ROBIN OF SHERWOOD was far from discredited under a penalty in his hat-trick attempt at Ffos Las last month, especially as the drop back in trip probably wasn't ideal, and he's taken to quickly resume winning ways back at a more suitable distance. The thriving Silent Man is the obvious threat, with the unexposed Don Herbager best of the rest.
