Highly progressive this season, picking up his fifth win of the campaign in cosy fashion at Doncaster in July. Down the field in a better race at Ascot next time but quickly back to form when runner-up at Haydock (11.6f) since. In the mix upped in trip with cheekpieces applied.
|
Left previous form well behind when easily winning Lingfield maiden in March and matched that effort on handicap debut after 6 months off when fourth at Kempton (11f) recently. Significantly upped in trip and he should have more to offer on turf debut.
|
Much improved having been gelded when landing 4-runner Nottingham novice (10.2f) in July. Matched rather than improved his form on both subsequent starts in handicaps, latest when fourth at Newbury (12f, good) 4 weeks ago. Could have a bit more to offer at some stage.
|
Sole success came at Doncaster in April and arrives on the back of a couple of lesser efforts, latest when tailed off at Ffos Las (16f, soft) just over 3 weeks ago. Cheekpieces retained and needs to get back on track.
|
Winner at Sandown (1¾m) in June and quickly put a lesser effort behind to resume winning ways under a good ride at Lingfield (13f, good to firm) 5 weeks ago, striking for home as the favourite was getting organised. Up 4 lb and can be in the mix again.
|
Respectable efforts on the Flat all 4 starts earlier in the year and arrives having been successful in a pair of juvenile hurdles at Stratford and Cartmel last month. Can continue his good work back on the level.
|
Off the mark in a Hamilton maiden (11.1f, good to soft) last month and again didn't need to find any progress when following up back in a handicap at Bath (14f, firm) 10 days ago, making all. Nudged up 3 lb and has to be respected in her hat-trick bid.
|
Bolted up without having to come off the bridle when getting off the mark at Leicester in July before improving further to land 9-runner event there 3 weeks later. Ran creditably in pursuit of a hat-trick when runner-up at same track last time and she remains of interest.
|
Enjoying a fine season, notching her fourth success of the year (and third at Ripon) 11 days ago, having the run of things but once again showing a likeable attitude. Up another 4 lb and she may well find a few too strong in this better contest.
|
Opened his account at Hamilton in July and on the back of a breathing operation, shaped as if back in form when mid-field at Carlisle (9f, good) 16 days ago. Will need to improve to get involved.

Forecasts
Dreams Adozen (4/1), Order Of Malta (4/1), Golden Maverick (5/1), Selenachorus (6/1), Lionella (13/2), Edwina Sheeran (9/1), Urban Outlook (11/1), Gifted Angel (12/1), Nobody Told Me (14/1), Lunacy (50/1)
Cases can be made for several, but preference is for URBAN OUTLOOK, who matched his previous form on return/handicap debut at Kempton recently, and with that sure have blown away any cobwebs, Andrew Balding's charge gets the verdict to come out on top now faced with more of a test of stamina. Golden Maverick has enjoyed a fruitful campaign and he could emerge as the main danger, with Dreams Adozen and Gifted Angel another couple worth a mention.
