9/2

Career best when winning 10-runner C&D handicap 16 days ago by head from reopposing Fierospeed. 3 lb rise unlikely to prevent another prominent showing.

Forecasts

Fierospeed (3/1), Giuseppe Cassioli (10/3), Starfighter (9/2), Flyin' Solo (9/2), Heaven Forfend (6/1), Hector's Here (16/1), Capriolette (22/1), School Of Thought (33/1), Mabre (50/1)

David Menuisier's FLYIN' SOLO should have more to come in handicaps and can strike off what looks a very workable opening mark. Recent C&D 1-2 Starfighter and Fierospeed can give him most to think about.
