16/1

C&D winner. Probably needed the run after 7 months off when twelfth of 13 in handicap at York (11.8f, good to soft, 33/1) 66 days ago. Should be closer to form this time around.

Form: 35816-0

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 92

Lightly-raced winner. Improved when second of 7 in handicap (11/2) at Pontefract (12f, good) 27 days ago. Major player off the same mark.

Form: 123-92

Forecasts

Approachability (2/1), Global Heat (10/3), Alright Sunshine (9/2), Bollin Joan (6/1), Wise Eagle (6/1), Furzig (16/1), Danehill Kodiac (22/1)

APPROACHABILITY left his reappearance effort behind when runner-up to stablemate Enfranchise at Pontefract last month, form franked by the winner going on to finish second in the Old Newton Cup at Haydock. The 3-y-o could still have more to offer after only 5 career starts, so he can get the better of Wise Eagle who is back below his last winning mark. Alright Sunshine completes the shortlist.
