C&D winner. 3 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win here in May. Probably needed run after 5-month break, seventh of 13 in handicap at this C&D (7/1) 17 days ago. Should be sharper now and isn't ruled out.

Forecasts

Eleven Eleven (9/4), Spirit Of Bowland (4/1), Asdaa (5/1), Jewel Of Kabeir (7/1), Copper Mountain (8/1), Strangerontheshore (11/1), Dance Angel (11/1), Armoured (12/1), Wheres The Crumpet (33/1)

ELEVEN ELEVEN was strong in the market and wasn't beaten too far when runner-up from this mark over C&D last week, so Jessica Macey's gelding is fancied to go one better. Spirit of Bowland landed a hat-trick in the spring and should be much closer to form after his recent return, so also makes appeal, with the consistent Jewel of Kabeir taken to round out the placings.
