5/2

Three wins from 4 runs last year, including twice here (on fibresand). Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap (8/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 13 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Proven on this surface and can go well back here.

Forecasts

Autonomy (5/2), Placated (5/2), Be Fair (4/1), Morning Symphony (5/1), Bug Boy (10/1), Lucky Draw (12/1), Sociologist (16/1), Annakonda (18/1), Relentless Sun (25/1), Global Style (40/1), Harry The Norseman (80/1), Graffa (150/1)

AUTONOMY won twice on the fibresand here last year and is the selection in this open-looking contest. He didn't have the race run to suit at Wolverhampton last time, but the lightly-raced 6-y-o can get back to winning ways returned to Southwell. Lucky Draw is feared most on her second start of the season, ahead of Placated who could have more to offer after her Lingfield success.
