18/1

Much improved in 2020, winning handicap at Chantilly and listed race at Deauville. Not yet threatened in 2 starts on these shores in recent months but he's the type his yard will do well with.

4/1

Useful staying handicapper in 2018 and defied a mammoth absence to make winning return at Chester (13.4f). Hard to knock his efforts in defeat subsequently and no surprise to see him go well again.

10/3

Consistent stayer who ran up to best when runner-up at York (2m) in August. Found wanting for finishing speed under quick conditions at Haydock (14f) since but this rates more suitable.

Racked up a 5-timer on AW earlier this year but well held on back of 5 months off at Catterick (12f) 2 weeks ago, having been allowed run of race. Needs to show benefit of that run to feature.

15/2

Jumpers' bumper winner in January who followed up in an AW handicap at Lingfield (15.7f) in February. Showed promise over hurdles thereafter and he remains unexposed ahead of his return to the level.

Mark is easing all the time but he didn't shape like he was ready to capitalise in a visor when ninth of 10 at Haydock (14f) at the start of last month. Tongue tie added to usual cheekpieces.

Forecasts

Future Investment (3/1), Rajinsky (10/3), Uber Cool (4/1), Buriram (5/1), Indianapolis (11/2), Royaume Uni (15/2), King's Advice (10/1), Single (11/1), Get Shirty (18/1), Clongowes (28/1), Caribeno (40/1)

RAJINSKY was seemingly found wanting for finishing speed under such quick conditions over shorter at Haydock recently but he had previously gone close over this trip at York and, with his rider taking off a valuable 5 lb, a better showing can be anticipated. Future Investment continues in form and is feared, along with Uber Cool and low-mileage Royaume Uni.
