Won back-to-back handicaps at Brighton in June. Had little go right in his hat-trick bid under a penalty, but found run of good form halted back at this trip at Wolverhampton 3 days ago.

Progressing well for new yard, completing hat-trick in 11-runner handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f, good to firm, 13/8) 33 days ago, despite hanging badly right soon after 2 out. May well extend her winning streak.

On a lengthy losing run and wasn't at his best when 3½ lengths sixth of 12 to Fact Or Fable in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 8 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Thirty three runs since last win in 2020 and finished 19½ lengths last of 12 to Fact Or Fable in handicap (12/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 8 days ago, looking temperamental. Blinkers back on.

Forecasts

Sympathise (11/10), Bantry (5/1), Red Alert (13/2), Kenstone (8/1), Galileo Glass (17/2), Coffeemeanscoffee (12/1), Fact Or Fable (12/1), Minhaaj (40/1), Toddays The Day (100/1)

Verdict

SYMPATHISE showed some wayward tendencies on her most recent outing, but her progress is hard to ignore and a 3 lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent the 4-timer. Bantry will prove a big threat if returning to his reappearance/stable debut form, while last-time-out winner Kenstone remains well treated on past exploits.
