Latest win at Yarmouth in September. Not seen to best effect when third of 7 in minor event (9/4) at this C&D 35 days ago, left poorly placed. Capable of getting involved.

Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 3/1, back to form when neck second of 11 to Aramis Grey in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago. Can make his presence felt off a workable mark.

C&D winner. 9/2, best effort of the year when 1½ lengths fourth of 11 to Aramis Grey in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago, not ideally placed. Needs everything to drop right.

4 wins from 13 runs this year. 9/2, improved again when winning 11-runner handicap at this C&D 7 days ago by neck from Apollo One, bit in hand. Can make a bold bid for the hat-trick under a penalty,

Won here on first 2 starts of the year, including over C&D. Run best excused when sixth of 8 in handicap (18/1) back at this C&D in March, racing wide. Others preferred after 7 months off.

4-time C&D winner. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. Shaped as if still in good form when 1¾ lengths third of 7 to Ivasecret in handicap (11/4) at this C&D 28 days ago. Tougher ask back up in grade.

7 wins from 19 runs this year. Latest success at Yarmouth in August. 12/1, continued in good heart when third of 11 in handicap at this course (7f) 21 days ago. May just find others better treated.

Forecasts

Apollo One (10/3), Aphelios (4/1), Strike Red (9/2), Tiger Crusade (9/2), Aramis Grey (13/2), First Folio (7/1), Ivasecret (22/1), Total Commitment (25/1), Dream Composer (33/1), Intervention (40/1), Papa Stour (80/1), Tolstoy (100/1)

Verdict

A competitive series final, with STRIKE RED taken to continue his good run of form and land the prize. The 4-y-o caught the eye in his bid for a hat-trick over C&D 7 days ago, keeping on well having been dropped out from the widest draw, so he can turn the tables on Aramis Grey, who is feared most under a penalty. Aphelios completes the shortlist.
