Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 86

10/3

Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Kempton (16f) in November. Below that level over same C&D the following month but remains low mileage and warrants respect down in trip.

11/4

Back from 5 months off when sixth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 14/1) 27 days ago, left poorly placed. Entitled to build on that.

Forecasts

Kensington (7/4), In The Breeze (11/4), Juan Bermudez (10/3), Sonnerie Power (9/2), Duke Of Verona (5/1), Party Island (7/1), Croeso Cymraeg (10/1), Brasca (12/1), Oman (16/1), Wind Your Neck In (16/1), Wise Glory (66/1)

SONNERIE POWER appeals as the type to do better this term and can make a winning return. Kensington also remains open to improvement and is feared most, whilst Juan Bermudez can also make his presence felt.
