Arrives in decent nick, not lasting home in the mud when third of 5 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f) 17 days ago. Not ruled out under these less testing conditions.

Comes here in good order, though he looked awkward under pressure when third of 9 in handicap at Ffos Las (15.8f) 40 days ago. Tongue strap on now so he still needs considering.

Back to winning ways over C&D before very good second of 13 in handicap at Carlisle (17f) 13 days ago. She merits serious consideration despite 2 lb rise.

Fairly useful winner at 9f on Flat. Has also taken well to this sphere, scoring at Wetherby and good second of 11 to Gamesters Icon over C&D last time. Strong traveller who rates a player.

Gamesters Icon (7/4), Kayfast Warrior (5/2), Feel The Pinch (5/1), Al Kherb (6/1), Romeo's Bond (11/1), Balleticon (14/1)

Verdict

None of the sextet can be safely ruled out, but marginal preference is for KAYFAST WARRIOR who travelled sweetly for a long way on his handicap debut when second to Gamesters Icon over C&D and can turn the tables this time on 2 lb better terms. Oliver Greenall's mare is at the top of her game though and merits serious respect, with Feel The Pinch also weighted to have a say.
