7/2

16/1 and blinkered for 1st time, respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 29 days ago, nearest finish. 0-10, but should have a race in him off this sort of mark.

Forecasts

Maid Millie (3/1), Mr Moneypenny (7/2), Little Sunflower (4/1), It Must Be Faith (5/1), Iesha (11/2), Forza Del Destino (12/1), Giovanni Tiepolo (16/1), Show Me Now (25/1), Macocha (40/1), Hala Be Zain (200/1), Ness Ta Rah (200/1)

Preference is for MR MONEYPENNY, who did well to finish as close as he did from a bad draw at Kempton last time and a reproduction of that effort would give him every chance. Maid Millie needs to bounce back, but she'll be a big player off this mark if able to do so. She is next on the list ahead of Iesha, who went close at Kempton recently. It Must Be Faith is also shortlisted.
