17/2
Handicap hurdle winner at Ayr and continued good work on the level, winning at Chepstow in May. 10/3, good third of 8 in handicap at Goodwood (12f, good to firm) 22 days ago and likely to give it another good go.

14/1
Losing run dates back to 2020. Best effort this season when sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (13.4f, good to firm) 28 days ago and this represents a drop in class.

Hasn't always looked straightforward but consistency hard to knock of late, finding only one too good at Haydock 16 days ago. Tackles a new trip.

Dropped a long way in the weights and edged out late in a C&D handicap 14 days ago. Well ridden on that occasion and nudged up 2 lb.

Continued theme of race-by-race progress when second on 1¼m Nottingham handicap debut in May. Bit disappointing over 9.1f at Yarmouth but could easily get back on the up trying a new trip.

Positive tactics worked the oracle when doubling career tally at Hamilton in May. Raised 11 lb but gave another very good account of himself when second at Nottingham. This trip should be within range.

Landed a 1m nursery last summer and hit frame on 2 of last 3 starts as a juvenile. Big career best when second at Newbury 16 days ago (long way clear of the rest) and a 3 lb rise looks lenient.

Forecasts

Greatness Awaits (9/4), Wynter Wildes (10/3), Australian Harbour (11/2), The New Marwan (6/1), Natchez Trace (7/1), Cogital (17/2), Zambezi Magic (10/1), Mancini (14/1), Hot Team (50/1)

Verdict

GREATNESS AWAITS arrives on the back of a career-best effort when a clear second in a 3-y-o handicap at Newbury and, now taking on his elders, he looks well treated. Wynter Wildes also arrives on the up and is second choice, with Cogital the pick of the older brigade.
