William Hill Handicap

Goes well at this track and having added to his tally at Newmarket (5f) in April, he posted a career-best when following up over C&D 3 weeks ago, by 1¼ lengths from Angle Land. Assessor applies a little more pressure but big player again in this groove.

3-time winner on AW/turf last year for Clive Cox who has run with credit on 3 of his 4 starts for present yard, fourth in 8-runner Windsor handicap (6f) 4 days ago. Remains low mileage at the minimum trip and he's not out of things.

Latest win at Wolverhampton (6f) in March. However, proved rather disappointing on AW since, 22¼ lengths last of 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 46 days ago. Bounce back called for returned to turf.

Resurgent from reduced mark this year, successful 3 times on AW and on top late on when going in again at Epsom (5f) last month. Creditable third from out of the weights at Chester (5f) 15 days ago and he ought to go well again in a refitted visor.

Bagged three handicaps on AW during the winter (all at 5f) and best effort yet on turf when runner-up behind Dream Composer over C&D 3 weeks ago, tackled over 1f out and edged out after. 5 lb better off with that rival now.

Tasted success 4 times on AW upon joining this yard last term and best efforts on turf came at this venue, including when second over C&D in August. Comes here on the back of creditable in-the-frame efforts in recent weeks but no easy task on from out of the weights on this occasion.
