Consistent sort who posted another creditable effort when third of 9 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, heavy) on return 7 days ago. Races off same mark and likely to go well again.

Lightly-raced maiden. Much improved when narrow second of 10 on handicap debut at Goodwood (9.9f, good to soft, 50/1) in June. Not seen since but yard is amongst the winners and must enter calculations.

Latest win at Kempton in March. 7/2, seventh of 8 in handicap at Windsor (10f, heavy) 14 days ago, slowly away. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Just 3 runs under his belt and posted fair form when third of 11 in maiden at Wolverhampton (9.5f) when last seen in November. Sent handicapping on return and it's likely we haven't seen the best of him yet.

Forecasts

God Of Thunder (10/3), Prophet's Dream (7/2), Niarbyl Bay (8/1), Far Horizon (8/1), Gert Lush (12/1), Carp Kid (14/1), Golden Dove (14/1), Prince Ali (14/1), Further Measure (16/1), Ermin Street (16/1), Platinum Prince (16/1), Change Of Fortune (20/1), Zuraig (25/1), Satellite Call (28/1)

Verdict

Preference is for NIARBYL BAY, who shaped with promise last year and appeals as the type to progress now switched to handicapping. Prophet's Dream and God of Thunder head the list of dangers.

  1. Niarbyl Bay8/1
  2. Prophet's Dream7/2
  3. God Of Thunder10/3
