8/13
Won 5-runner handicap (7/4) at Ripon (12f, good to firm) 8 days ago, showing the best turn of foot in a slowly-run race back up in trip. Could face a similar scenario here and good chance under a penalty.

Four-time winner for Ralph Beckett earlier in career. Third of 5 in handicap at Haydock (14f, good, 66/1) 15 days ago. Remains below his best but his much-reduced mark reflects that.

Improved back on the level this term, winning Catterick and C&D handicaps under softer conditions. Shaped as if still in form when fourth of 7 in handicap at Catterick (15.9f, good, 5/2) 25 days ago. Player back in trip.

Caught the eye when seventh of 8 in handicap at Redcar (10f, good, 11/2) 11 days ago, finishing with running left after meeting repeated trouble. One to consider.

Forecasts

Knightswood (8/13), Robert Johnson (3/1), Just Hiss (11/1), Franco Grasso (12/1), Brasca (14/1), Wontgetfooledagen (50/1)

Verdict

KNIGHTSWOOD won back-to-back races this time last year and can repeat the feat under a penalty for last week's Ripon success. Just Hiss caught the eye at Redcar and is feared most ahead of Robert Johnson.
