Capitalised on a lower turf mark in 14-runner handicap at York (6f, good) 28 days ago, suited by strong pace. 5 lb higher now but capable of going well again if the cards fall right.

Better than ever this season, following up his Musselburgh win over C&D in May. Found to be lame in Temple Stakes at Haydock but excuses harder to come by back in handicap company last time.

Confirmed his return to form when third of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good) 15 days ago, headed close home. Should be up to winning before the year is out.

Useful sprinter who has made a positive start for this stable, not beaten far when fourth at Ascot (5f) 2 weeks ago. Entitled to be thereabouts again.

Dual 6f winner last year and ran well when second at Kempton on his reappearance but has badly lost his way since. Hopes pinned on first-time blinkers sparking a revival.

Has held his form very well this year, and shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when down the field at Windsor last time, racing closer to pace than ideal. High draw here no help, though.

Front runner who failed to come on for a recent run at Catterick last time. Remains 2 lb above his last winning mark and others arrive here in better form.

Capitalised on a good draw/falling mark when back on the scoresheet over C&D in June. Not disgraced back up in trip next time but needs to cast aside a lesser effort at Ripon last week.

Forecasts

Barbill (5/2), Aplomb (7/2), Look Out Louis (9/2), Sunday Sovereign (5/1), Venturous (5/1), King Of Stars (7/1), Gabrial The Devil (8/1), Mountain Brave (8/1), Lihou (10/1), Jabbarockie (12/1), Wrenthorpe (28/1)

Verdict

LOOK OUT LOUIS has been a real success story for his current yard, and with the form of his latest run proving strong, he looks up to winning more races. Venturous can go well again if the cards fall right, while Sunday Sovereign should be up to striking before the year is out.

  1. LOOK OUT LOUIS
  2. VENTUROUS (IRE)
  3. SUNDAY SOVEREIGN
