Losing run is mounting up but consistency hard to knock in recent months, placed on 6 of his 7 starts on AW prior to a good fifth in big-field Redcar handicap (6f) 17 days ago. Should make his presence felt again.
|
Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 13 in handicap at Brighton (6f, good) 9 days ago, beaten only by a thriving sort and nicely clear of remainder. Clearly in good heart and booking of Simon Walker an obvious plus.
|
4-y-o who went agonisingly close to breaking his duck at Newcastle (6f) in October, headed on line. Ridden too aggressively when fifth at Redcar (6f) final start and worth considering from this mark on return. Visor replaces blinkers.
|
5-time course winner who ran best race for some time returned to this venue when just failing over 7f, 4 weeks ago. Remains below last winning mark and drop back to 6f will hold no fears.
|
Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in February. Below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Brighton (6f, good, 66/1) 9 days ago. Likely to face competition for the lead here.
|
Maiden who offered little on the back of 8 months off when eighth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 40/1) 10 days ago. Visor reached for now.
|
9/1, bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 57 days ago, the quick turnaround probably against him. Others rate stronger for win purposes.
|
One win from 40 Flat runs. Sixth of 13 in handicap (100/1) at Brighton (6f, good) 9 days ago, nearest finish. Blinkers back on but others make greater appeal.

Forecasts
Kath's Toyboy (2/1), Deevious Beau (10/3), So Grateful (10/3), Swiss Rowe (7/1), Irish Times (7/1), Millicent (16/1), Moveonup (22/1), Sparkling Diamond (100/1)
SO GRATEFUL highlighted his mark is exploitable on a handful of occasions during the second half of last year and, having been ridden too aggressively on his final start, is fancied to make a bold bid on return equipped with a first-time visor. Kath's Toyboy and course-specialist Irish Times rate next best, ahead of Deevious Beau.
