Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 7/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago, met some trouble. Posted a couple of creditable efforts in defeat prior to that and he's one to be interested in.

18/1

Below form eighth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 33/1) 19 days ago. Found just one too good off this mark at Catterick on penultimate start, so there's cause for optimism.

Forecasts

Aconcagua Mountain (7/4), The Grey Lass (5/1), Bonito Cavalo (11/2), Glory Hallelujah (11/2), Whiskey Priest (15/2), Ski Angel (8/1), Gowanbuster (8/1), Beneficiary (11/1), Burtonlodge Beauty (12/1), Lola's Moment (18/1), Koropick (33/1), Nodsasgoodasawink (40/1)

GLORY HALLELUJAH's latest effort over 6f at Ripon was a laboured one but he is firmly in the reckoning based on last month's placed efforts there and at Beverley. The return to the minimum trip looks a good move. The Grey Lass looks a big threat on the back of a solid C&D effort 18 days ago, while Aconcagua Mountain is surely nailed-on for another prominent role and Lola's Moment also has claims.
