18/1, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 13 days ago, badly hampered. That run can clearly be excused and he's significantly up in trip.

Forecasts

Capital Theory (2/1), Pistoletto (3/1), Snapcracklepop (7/2), Jean Danjou (6/1), Masqool (9/1), Splendent (10/1), Blow Your Horn (20/1), Beautiful Crown (22/1), Aristobulus (33/1)

The return to this C&D is a big positive for PISTOLETTO, and with this also representing a drop in class, he's a very appealing candidate. Capital Theory and Snapcracklepop head the opposition.
