10/1
Won 8-runner AW novice at Lingfield (5f) in August before overcoming an unfavourable position to defy a penalty in a similar race at Newcastle (5f, 10/11) next time. Possibly unsuited by conditions at Thirsk on return and remains of interest.

Speedily-bred sort got off the mark at third time of asking in 7-runner minor event at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) last summer. Below form on return at Newbury 2 weeks ago, albeit racing in unfavoured group, and others make more appeal on balance.

Didn't need to be at best when landing the odds in minor event at Kempton (7f) in January and followed up in comfortable fashion in a first-time tongue strap after 3 months off at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Sure to make a bold bid for the hat-trick.

Won Thirsk maiden last May. Hasn't troubled the judge since but creditable efforts both outings this term and should give his running once more.

Confirmed debut promise when winning maiden at Beverley last July. 22¾ lengths last of 8 to Legend of Xanadu in listed race at Doncaster 4 months later and seemed rusty in a handicap at Thirsk on return. Still relatively unexposed.

Successful debut in Ireland last year and solid start to handicaps when second at Nottingham and Yarmouth. Doesn't seem straightforward, though, and ran poorly at former course last time.

From a good family and promise in 3 runs for Chris Dwyer last season. Has joined a shrewd yard in the 9 months he's been off an looks open to improvement.

Signs of ability last year, fifth in a maiden at Southwell when last seen 9 months ago. Type to do better in handicaps but opening mark doesn't appear to be all that lenient.

Showed ability for Charlie Appleby and probably needed his first outing for current yard in C&D maiden. Might improve for a switch to handicaps.

Forecasts

Harry Magnus (7/4), Hover On The Wind (10/3), Secret Guest (6/1), King's Crown (7/1), Captain Cuddles (15/2), Sporting Hero (10/1), Open Market (25/1), Brother Sebastian (40/1), Higher Law (50/1)

Verdict

HARRY MAGNUS arrrives on a hat-trick and there could be more to come from this likeable type, so he takes preference over Sporting Hero, who remains with potential despite a poor run on testing ground at Thirsk last time. Hover On The Wind is also of interest on debut for a shrewd yard.
