2/1

C&D winner. Good fifth of 14 in handicap at York (7f, good to firm, 10/1) 21 days ago, the combination of a big move into contention and the lack of a recent outing seeming to tell in the dying stages. Can give a good account.

Forecasts

New Endeavour (2/1), Lunatick (6/1), Berkshire Phantom (7/1), Animate (7/1), Diamond Vega (8/1), Alpha Crucis (17/2), Ertebat (10/1), Awtaad Prince (11/1), Dark Trooper (12/1), Ajjaj (25/1), Strictly Dreaming (150/1)

ERTEBAT pulled clear of the rest when second to a similarly progressive type at Newmarket 3 weeks ago and remains of plenty of interest stepping up to 7f. Lunatick and New Endeavour head the dangers after making eye-catching reappearances at Windsor and York respectively.
