Showed benefit of reappearance run when landing 22-runner Spring Mile at Doncaster in April. Seen only 3 times since, possibly still in need of the run when tenth of 11 in handicap Wolverhampton (8.6f) 6 days ago. Still, others preferred.

Well served by return to AW/fitting of a first-time visor when bouncing back to score at Kempton (1m) last month and backed that up when third in Saturday's London Mile Final back at that venue. Can go well again now he's back in the groove.

6/1
Started his career promisingly and, having largely struggled in turf handicaps for present stable, he took a major step back in right direction when second at Newcastle (1m) 2 weeks ago, chasing home subsequent London Mile winner Helm Rock. Claims from 1 lb higher.

Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 40/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Chester (7.6f, good to soft) 11 days ago, slowly away and never dangerous. Tough to assess at present.

9/1
Proved at least as good as ever when coming from an unpromising position to make winning return/yard debut over C&D in April. Better than bare form figures suggest in trio of starts on turf subsequently and likelihood is she remains on a workable mark returned to AW. Interesting.

Latest win at Chepstow in August. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap (10/1) at Newbury (8f, good to firm) 15 days ago, running on. Should give another good account for all present mark demands that little bit more.

40/1
Dual 7f winner on AW this time last year who has confirmed herself back in better heart from an easing mark of late, staying on for sixth from a less-than-ideal position at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 6 days ago. However, others appeal a little more for win purposes.

Endured a disappointing 2022 but well prepared to make winning return to action at Thirsk (1m) in May. Has shaped as if in reasonable heart all 4 starts since and he's no forlorn hope from this sort of mark.

Just touched off from easing mark at Kempton (1m) 2 starts back and confirmed promise of that run when landing 13-runner Newcastle handicap (7f) 2 weeks ago, staying on to lead final 100 yds. Expected to go well again from 3 lb higher mark.

Winner at Sandown in June. Good second of 10 in handicap (10/3) at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 27 days ago, leading last ½f and headed near line. Building up a solid record for this yard and he enters calculations again.

Latest win at Carlisle (7.8f) in July. 15/2, respectable second of 13 in handicap at Redcar (8f, good to firm) 18 days ago, going well when not clear run under 2f out and keeping on. Remains less exposed than most on AW and he's a live each-way player.

Creditable 2¼ lengths fifth of 13 to Billy Mill in handicap (7/2) at Newcastle (7.1f) 13 days ago, short of room 2f out and staying on final 1f. Remains one to be interested in from this sort of mark and rider takes off handy 5 lb here.

Winner over C&D in June but not scaled same heights all 3 starts since, albeit best not judged too harshly on his yard debut effort when eleventh of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (1m) 2 weeks ago.

Forecasts

Baltimore Boy (4/1), Dionysian (11/2), Tosen Wish (6/1), Hat Toss (13/2), Hartswood (15/2), Billy Mill (15/2), Kingmania (9/1), Cabinet Of Clowns (12/1), Strongbowe (18/1), Star Zinc (20/1), Fools Rush In (33/1), Cry Havoc (40/1), Harswell Duke (66/1)

Verdict

Overcoming a pace bias when successful on return/yard debut over C&D in the spring, KINGMANIA has largely been in better order than recent form figures suggest and, appealing as still being on a workable mark returned to all weather, it would come as no surprise to see a bold showing from James Ferguson's mare. Dionysian and Tosen Wish both arrive on the back of good efforts and are feared, with Hat Toss and Billy Mill others fancied to be in the mix.
