Borderline useful at his best in France and produced his best effort in this country from much-reduced mark when second of 9 in handicap at Southwell (16.5f, 33/1) 28 days ago, perhaps showing benefit of recent wind-op. Player if able to back that up.
|
Course winner early last year but ended the season badly out of sorts. Significantly up in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter after 149-day absence.
|
Bounced back to form when won 7-runner apprentice event at this C&D 9 days ago, dictating. 5 lb claimer replaces 3 lb claimer in saddle and he should make another bold bid from the front.
|
Won 9-runner handicap at this course (14f, third course success) 24 days ago, well suited by strongly-run race. Can give another good account from 2 lb higher mark.
|
Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this course (13.3f) 7 days ago, all out to hold on after pulling way to front circuit out. Carries penalty. Up in trip. Will need to race more efficiently here.
|
Pulled up in handicap chase (14/1) at Fakenham (21.2f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Modest on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing. Opposable switched to this sphere for first time in over a year.
|
Matched his previous best when sixth of 10 in minor event at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 9 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Others have achieved more.

Forecasts
Winklevi (9/4), Bascinet (5/2), Estrela Star (7/2), Got Bright (4/1), Elmejor (16/1), Cable Mountain (22/1), The Yellow Mini (50/1)
A race featuring a handful of in-form types, with WINKLEVI fancied to follow up last week's C&D success. It's easy enough to see David Evans' gelding getting an easy enough lead here once again, and that could swing the balance in his favour ahead of the interesting Got Bright, who ran his best race in this country last time. Estrela Star is preferred to fellow last-time-out winner Bascinet for third.
