Three wins from 10 runs last year. Latest win at Pontefract in October. Respectable third of 8 in handicap (10/3) at Doncaster (8f, good) 19 days ago, sticking to task. Not taken lightly.

Managed to bag pair of 7f Thirsk handicaps last season and ran up to best when fourth from career-high mark at Ayr (7.2f) in September. Well below best at York final start but ease bac down in grade a plus on return. Cheekpieces on 1st time.

10/3
C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year. 5/1, solid enough return display when seventh of 18 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good) 18 days ago and no surprise to see him step up on that here. Respected.

Novice winner on the AW in June and progressive form in handicaps to end the year without winning. 7/2, creditable second of 18 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good) 18 days ago and expected to be bang there again.

Losing run mounting up but he did go close on a couple of occasions last summer. Not disgraced when fifth of 8 at Newcastle (1m) final start in October but this seasonal reappearance may just be needed.

Proved admirably consistent during a busy first season, gaining third career success in 3-runner C&D handicap in August. Runner-up all 3 starts thereafter and no surprise to see him go well again back from 6 months off.

Proved strong in betting and took advantage of drop in weights to end losing run at Thirsk (7f) in September. Only 3 lb higher now but he wouldn't be an obvious candidate to follow up.

18/1
C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, soft) when last seen in October, left behind over 1f out. Operating from career-low mark on return but he has often needed a run or two to put him spot on.

Three wins from 13 runs last year but easy to back and failed to beat a rival in a couple of AW runs at Newcastle in recent weeks. Needs to revive for the switch back to turf.

Forecasts

Empirestateofmind (9/4), Wizard D'Amour (3/1), Challet (10/3), Cosmos Raj (8/1), Trinity Lake (12/1), Just Hiss (18/1), Global Spirit (18/1), Cassy O (18/1), Whatwouldyouknow (28/1)

Verdict

CHALLET did well last term, registering victories at York either side of success in a C&D handicap in August. He rates the type to take a step forward from his Doncaster return 18 days ago and could well represent a spot of value returned to this venue. Wizard d'Amour, who finished in front of the selection latest, is an obvious threat, along with Empirestateofmind.
