9/2

7/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Doncaster (8f, good) 27 days ago. Open to further improvement if he gets the longer trip, so one to consider.

8/1

Winner at Lingfield in January. Respectable fourth of 13 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 20/1) 32 days ago, nearest finish. Not taken lightly.

40/1

Remains a maiden after 29 Flat runs. 33/1 and visored for 1st time, excellent second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 45 days ago, finishing well. Not certain to back that up.

Form: 60-0072

Forecasts

Silastar (9/4), Andaleep (4/1), Good Regal (9/2), Youarenotforgiven (9/2), Pablo Prince (8/1), Stopnsearch (12/1), Rhubarb Bikini (16/1), Blairlogie (40/1)

ANDALEEP has started well for his new stable and looks well treated on old form, so he makes plenty of appeal on the back of his excellent second at Sandown 8 days ago. Youarenotforgiven is on the up and warrants serious consideration, while Good Regal is also likely to feature with the assistance of Benoit de la Sayette.
