12/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Below-par fifth of 7 in handicap (16/1) at Newcastle (8f) 69 days ago so others appeal more.

Detective (3/1), Liberation Point (7/2), Dandy Maestro (5/1), Bowland Park (5/1), Strongbowe (8/1), Crown Princess (10/1), Crownthorpe (12/1), Madame Peltier (18/1), Vissani (28/1)

LIBERATION POINT has taken his form up a notch since fitted with blinkers and is weighted to add to his Chester success given he's able to race off the same mark here as when edged out at Sandown. Course-specialist Detective is feared most on the back of his C&D second, with Dandy Maestro appealing as the pick of the remainder for minor honours.
