Last of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Thirsk (8f, good) 15 days ago. Back up in trip and blinkers may spark him back into life down in class.

Blinkered for first time when ninth of 12 in handicap (13/2) at Newbury (8f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and needs to cast that heavy defeat aside.

10/11
Shaped quite well when fourth of 18 in handicap at York (11.8f, good to firm, 11/1) 18 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Has to be taken very seriously down in trip/grade.

4/1
14/1, respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, soft) 35 days ago, unable to sustain effort having been given plenty to do it. Needs treating as though still in form.

Brushed aside when eighth of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm) 11 days ago. May still have needed that and she's inching back to her last winning mark.

25/1 and tongue strap on for first time, much improved when winning 9-runner novice hurdle at Worcester (16f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Task is to now continue the good work back on the level.

Below form sixth of 14 in handicap (40/1) at Doncaster (11.9f, soft) 36 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Drop back in trip will suit.

Reach (10/11), Angels Landing (4/1), Maffeo Barberini (11/1), Nasim (11/1), Baikal (12/1), Flag Of Truth (14/1), Shamekh (14/1), Flower Of Thunder (18/1), Mawkeb (28/1)

Verdict

REACH ran a cracker when fourth in a deeper handicap than this at York 18 days ago, and having been eased 1 lb with this drop back in trip sure to suit, she has a lot in her favour. Angels Landing had little chance given how the race unfolded at Musselburgh last time and she's feared most, with Flower of Thunder one to consider at longer odds.
