Useful sprinter but he came in last of 6 in minor event at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 16/1) 84 days ago. Back after a wind op now and needs it to spark a resurgence.

C&D winner. 18/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Epsom (6f, good) 7 days ago, doing too much too soon. No surprise to see him bounce back.

Forecasts

Copper Knight (5/2), Glory Fighter (3/1), Count D'Orsay (9/2), Militia (5/1), Rebel At Dawn (17/2), Night On Earth (14/1), Gabrial The Devil (22/1), Lord Riddiford (25/1)

Verdict

COPPER KNIGHT took a step back in the right direction when fourth at Musselburgh and has slipped to a handy mark too so this C&D scorer is fancied to resume winning ways. Paul Midgley has his string in excellent nick and his in-form duo Militia and Glory Figher, both C&D winners too, can chase home Tim Easterby's grand veteran in that order.

  1. Copper Knight5/2
  2. Militia5/1
  3. Glory Fighter3/1
