Low-mileage 4-y-o who posted good fourth in 7f Haydock handicap in April but failed to back it up at Ascot. More needed.

Improved again last term, winning back-to-back course handicaps in June/July. Held his form subsequently and should strip fitter for his reappearance here 10 days ago. Could get involved.

Infrequent winner but arrives in terrific form, finding only one too good at Thirsk last time. Should be thereabouts if he gets the gaps.

Good advert for his shrewd yard last term, gaining fourth victory in handicaps at Musselburgh (7f) in August. Encouraging efforts both starts this year (third over C&D last time) and another bold showing is on the cards.

Useful sort who shaped as if still in form towards the end of last season and returns on an appealing mark on first run for Hugo Palmer. One to note if strong in the betting.

Gained some reward for a string of consistent efforts when scoring at Ripon in April but put in a rare poor showing at Thirsk 22 days ago. No great surprise if he's back on his game.

First run since leaving Richard Fahey and career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Nottingham (8.3f) in April. Unsuited by drop in trip next time and de la Sayette takes a useful 5 lb off.

Useful gelding at his best but he's yet to fire in handicaps this term. On a long losing run (last win in C&D handicap in July 2020).

Opened his account in 1m handicap at Newcastle in March and, following a blip, was firmly back on track when getting the better of Mostawaa at Hamilton a couple of weeks ago. Probably hasn't finished improving.

Solid showing at Haydock in April then seemed to find the race coming too soon at Thirsk next time. Could get back on his game, but others look better treated.

Arrives in good nick, hitting the frame once more when behind Eilean Dub in handicap at Hamilton a fortnight ago. Should make his presence felt if things drop right.

Runner-up the last twice, latterly to Eilean Dub (Harswell Duke in third) at Hamilton earlier in the month. Stall 20 isn't ideal for his front-running style, but can make his mark if able to get across.

Not long with Roger Fell and shaped like a winner in waiting (met trouble) when third to Eilean Dubh at Hamilton last time. Worth a chance to open his account for this stable.

On a losing run but nicely handicapped as a result and his latest fifth at this course was a step back in the right direction, can't be ruled out.

Ended last term well out of sorts for David Loughnane and, while his penultimate outing at Ripon was more encouraging, he failed to beat a rival here 11 days ago. Others preferred.

Largely operating below best since a 7f Wolverhampton claiming win in January. Handicap mark has come down as a result, but tough to fancy in a competitive event.

Verdict

HARSWELL DUKE is lightly raced for his current yard and may well have beaten the likes of Eilean Dubh and Mostawaa had he enjoyed a clearer passage at Hamilton a couple of weeks ago. As such, he's fancied to get the better of that pair, who are also well respected, as is On A Session.
