Showed improved form to get off the mark in 12-runner maiden at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 10/3) 23 days ago, well on top finish. Should have more to offer.

6/1
Fair bumper winner who produced a promising first effort in this sphere when second of 9 in minor event at Southwell (11.1f, 66/1) on Flat debut 20 days ago, clear of rest. Has to enter calculations.

Fairly useful maiden. First run since leaving Freddie & Martyn Meade when last of 11 in handicap (11/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 22 days ago. Makes polytrack debut and needs to recapture the pick of his form.

3/1
Roaring Lion colt. Half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1½m Scarlet Dragon and winner up to 1¼m Commander Cole, both smart. Found wanting for know-how when a sedate pace lifted on her Nottingham debut back in the spring and is the type to do much better having been gelded.

Down the field both starts in this sphere and showed more temperament than ability when pulled up in a juvenile hurdle (150/1) at Kempton (16f, soft) on NH debut 14 days ago.

Forecasts

Lartigue (6/4), Composite (5/2), Rogue Lion (3/1), Little Peter (6/1), Escarpment (28/1), Starspangledsammy (50/1), Reign Of Thunder (200/1), Sullivan Bay (250/1), Miss Billie (250/1)

Verdict

COMPOSITE was well on top at the line when opening his account at Wolverhampton last month and, with his useful pedigree providing plenty of hope for better still, he's taken to defy a penalty. Lartigue and Little Peter are considered the main threats, though Rogue Lion appeals as the type to leave his debut form well behind and shouldn't be overlooked.
