Pair of wins this spring, the latter over C&D on heavy. Even better form when placed twice over C&D in June and he can have a line put through his latest run at Ayr as he simply did too much too soon.

Sprung a 25/1 surprise at Chester (6f, good) in June but below form since, well held in the mud at Haydock on Sunday.

Three-3-time C&D winner, the latest on soft in April. Also successful at Thirsk in May but not at best in recent starts. This the sort of race he could bounce back in, though.

2/1
Won this race in 2021 and added two more C&D wins last year (including on heavy). Back on a good mark and had the 7f trip as a possible excuse for a lesser effort at York last time. Well handicapped back at his favoured venue.

Forecasts

Fortamour (2/1), Bay Breeze (5/2), Twelfth Knight (11/4), Faro De San Juan (4/1)

Verdict

A small field but it includes a trio of C&D specialists. FORTAMOUR is well handicapped and can land this race for the second time in the last 3 years. Twelfth Knight can follow him home.
