13/8
Latest win at Chester in May. After 7 days off, ninth of 13 in handicap at Epsom (10.1f, good to firm, 8/1) 20 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Can leave latest run behind to resume winning ways.

Off the mark at Kempton on return. On firmer ground than previously, well-beaten fifth of 7 on handicap debut at Ripon (9.8f, good to firm, 9/2) 33 days ago. Could bounce back with cheekpieces on 1st time.

Scored at Beverley (9.9f) in May and matched that level when third of 5 in handicap at the same course (12.1f, good to firm, evens) 13 days ago. Merits consideration returned to this shorter distance.

Completed hat-trick with success at Wolverhampton in February. Needed stronger gallop when last of 4 in handicap (5/2) at the same course (8.6f) next time. Needs to transfer improvement this year on to turf.

Forecasts

Perfect Play (13/8), Orchestra (11/4), In The Trenches (7/2), El Jasor (5/1), Mint Edition (7/1), Radetsky Marsch (12/1), Gordon Grey (12/1), Common Acclaim (14/1), No Barrier (22/1)

Verdict

PERFECT PLAY confirmed the promise of his runner-up effort on return when going one better at Chester in May, before probably doing just too much too soon to last home at Epsom a week later. He can leave his latest run behind back down in grade, so is taken to see off the challenge of In The Trenches and Orchestra.
