7/4

Blinkered first time, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Nottingham (1¾m, good to soft, 11/1) 32 days ago. The second has run well since and another bold show is likely of the headgear continues to have a positive effect.

Form: 2-35371

Daaris (7/4), Dereham (9/2), Foursome (5/1), Yakhabar (7/1), Sir Joseph Swan (15/2), Pledge Of Peace (8/1), Alpha King (11/1)

DAARIS reacted positively to blinkers at Nottingham last time and might be up to defying a rise in the weights if the headgear works as well a second time. It's probably only a matter of time before Sir Joseph Swan clicks for the Archie Watson yard and he's second choice ahead of last-time-out Newmarket scorer Dereham.
