Respectable third of 7 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 4/1) 14 days ago. Back up in trip and should make his presence felt.

5/2
Five wins from 19 Flat runs. Three wins from 9 runs last year. Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 11/8) 12 days ago. Merits consideration in his hat-trick bid, for all that a 5 lb rise demands more.

Forecasts

Walking On Clouds (5/2), Vespasian (11/4), Idoapologise (6/1), Intervention (7/1), Ballyare (8/1), Algheed (17/2), Muscika (20/1), Sarah's Verse (25/1), Q Twenty Boy (66/1)

Verdict

IDOAPOLOGISE fared best of those held up when hitting the crossbar at Southwell last week and he is appealing off the same mark here. The hat-trick seeking Walking On Clouds looks set for another leading role and he is second choice, albeit only marginally as Vespasian has been knocking on the door since returning from a break in December and Intervention also has claims.
