25/1
Course winner. Four wins from 18 runs last year, latest at Brighton in August. Given a considerate return from a break when beating only one home in 12-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 32 days ago. This will reveal more.

Forecasts

Enough Already (15/8), Sandy Paradise (4/1), Dayman (9/2), Arctician (11/2), Larado (13/2), Smart Deal (18/1), Dornoch Castle (20/1), Poetic Force (25/1)

Verdict

DAYMAN has been shaping up well of late and, with a strong pace forecast, he's taken to get off the mark for his current connections. In-form pair Arctician and Enough Already head the dangers.
