9/1
Three wins from 19 runs this year, the latest over C&D in May. Not so good over 6f at Newcastle lately but has dropped to below that latest winning mark now returned to a C&D which suits him better. Worth chancing to bounce back to form.

Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs. Creditable third of 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 9/2) 10 days ago, nearest finish. Widest stall not ideal.

Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 15/2, bit below form fifth of 11 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 28 days ago, left poorly placed. Third over C&D prior to that.

Latest win at Lingfield in October. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap (7/2) back there (1m) 13 days ago. One to consider from a handy draw.

Twenty runs since last win in 2021. 18/1, last of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good) when last seen in May. Likely it's best to look elsewhere.

Verdict

A chance is taken on WRITTEN BROADCAST bouncing back to form as 6f being on the short side for him offers an excuse for some lesser efforts lately and he's well treated returned to a C&D which plays to his strengths, particularly if Brandon Wilkie's claim is taken into account. Neptune Legend is well drawn for one who often goes from the front and is second choice ahead of Cheese The One.
