Fair performer who hasn't bene on her game the last twice but wasn't ideally placed at Pontefract last time. Can't be ruled out entirely.

Proved a different proposition on handicap bow/return when third of 9 at Haydock and filled the same position at Goodwood last time. Still not fully exposed and likely to be on the premises.

7/1
Dual winner at Kempton this year and showed himself equally effective on turf when runner-up at Yarmouth last time. Capable of going one better.

Failed to progress for David Loughnane. Has been picked up cheaply and gelded since (has been off 6 months) and joined a stable that's having a fruitful campaign.

9/2
Thrice-raced maiden. 9/1, encouraging third of 8 in minor event at Goodwood (6f, good) 8 months ago. Trainer's runners often progress once handicapping, so worth a market check with Oisin Murphy booked.

9/1
Caught the eye on debut last year and, while he has failed to build on that, he's likely to strip fitter for his reappearance at Kempton. Not completely dismissed on first go in handicaps.

Lightly-raced maiden who failed to beat a rival at Goodwood on handicap debut recently. Hard to make a case for.

Consistent sort who found a bit of improvement to open his account at Chepstow last time. This is tougher race but he should give his running once more.

Forecasts

Vegas Jack (85/40), Goodwood Vision (9/2), Racing Demon (5/1), Fariba (11/2), Perfect Gentleman (7/1), Lunar Landscape (9/1), Guiteau (18/1), Commission (22/1)

Verdict

PERFECT GENTLEMAN is generally progressive and stayed on nicely to finish second at Yarmouth last time, so he's fancied to get back to winning ways. Vegas Jack is in good form and could pose the main threat, although Goodwood Vision is a likely improver on handicap debut.

  1. Perfect Gentleman7/1
