Creditable third on first 2 outings this term but faded into a below-par seventh of 9 over this trip at Goodwood 3 weeks ago. Bounce back needed.

Winner of novice at Beverley in April. Has failed to win in 4 handicap starts since but he continues to leave the impression there's a bigger peformance in him at some point and this easier than the Class 2 he contested last time.

Successful twice at up to 2m for Graeme McPherson during 2020. Missed 2021 but hasn't taken long to show he still retains all his ability, scoring over C&D under Adam Kirby 20 days ago. Should remain competitive after a 3 lb rise.

Fairly useful mare who was a fair fourth over 2m at Goodwood on her penultimate start and is probably best forgiven her latest Queen Alexandra run at Royal Ascot as she faced a very stiff task.

Forecasts

Happy (5/2), Duke Of Verona (3/1), Saratoga Gold (9/2), High Wells (11/2), Fox Vardy (13/2), Single (12/1)

Verdict

HAPPY has been knocking at the door and this could be the day he comes good in a handicap. Duke of Verona gets the nod for the forecast spot ahead of recent C&D scorer High Wells.
