Winner of 5 handicaps last season and decent efforts in defeat this term, good second of 7 in handicap at Goodwood (12f, good, 8/1) 21 days ago. Merits consideration.

C&D winner last season off 10 lb higher. 2 wins from 5 runs this year, though last 2 starts suggest he's in the handicapper's grip now.

Hasn't fulfilled his early 3-y-o promise and well held all 3 starts this season, running poorly in this headgear at Thirsk latest.

Found some improvement when taking 7-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 10/3), well on top finish. Not in same form at Wolverhampton since, however, and opposable back on turf.

Career best when winning 6-runner handicap (9/4) at Doncaster (10.2f, good to firm) with plenty in hand. Well held at Newcastle since (found to be coughing post-race). That was only 2 weeks ago so comes with risks attached.

Useful at best but well beaten both starts here this season after over 2 years off. Plenty to prove in a change of headgear.

Proved a different proposition on first run since a gelding operation when winning 5-runner novice event at Lingfield (10f, good to firm, 11/4) 34 days ago, accounting for some fair rivals with the minimum of fuss. Looks a useful prospect so high on shortlist on handicap bow.

Ran well on first outing for 9 months/since leaving David O'Meara when third of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 11/1) 23 days ago, going off too hard. C&D winner last summer off 3 lb higher so needs considering.

Fair 7f juvenile winner who wasn't disgraced on his return when eighth of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) 49 days ago but others look better treated.

Quickly back on track when making a winning handicap bow at Redcar (10f, good to firm) 21 days ago, overcoming pace bias. Can improve again so big player up 5 lb.

In first-time cheekpieces, stepped up on his reappearance when runner-up in Ripon novice (9.8f, heavy) in April. However, failed to repeat that effort when sixth of 9 in a similar event at Redcar (10f, good to firm) last time. Needs to find more.

Good second of 5 in maiden at Brighton (8f, good, 7/2) 17 days ago, no match for winner. Back up in trip. Work to do off this opening mark.

Forecasts

El Jasor (2/1), Eeetee (5/1), Bleak (11/2), John Chard Vc (7/1), Andaleep (17/2), Three Yorkshiremen (14/1), Solar Joe (14/1), Dark Moon Rising (16/1), Shimmering Sands (20/1), Sagauteur (25/1), Onemorenomore (33/1), Rise Hall (50/1), Super Den (80/1)

Verdict

Improving 3-y-os EL JASOR and Bleak make the most appeal. The former was value plenty extra for his handicap debut win at Redcar so shades the vote. Sagauteur made an encouraging start for this yard when third at Newcastle and looks best of the others off what is a potentially handy mark.
