Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Catterick (6f, heavy, 7/2) 9 days ago, well on top finish. Carries penalty. Has conditions to suit again and should make another bold bid.

Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, shaped as if needing run when tenth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 14 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Likely needed the run when eighth of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Southwell (6.1f) 17 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Unproven on soft ground but has won over C&D.

11/2 and visored for 1st time, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 24 days ago, nearest finish and faring best of those held up. Sound place claims again.

Lightly-raced maiden. Excellent second of 9 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 4/1) 9 days ago, beaten only by another unexposed sort and finishing clear of rest. Has to be taken seriously.

Forecasts

Shelbourne (13/8), Want Want (9/4), Wren Officer (6/1), She Is A Keeper (8/1), Cypriot Diaspora (10/1), Eighth Army (16/1), Emu War (16/1)

Verdict

SHELBOURNE scored in similarly testing conditions at Catterick last week and he's fancied to follow under a penalty, though Want Want took a significant step forward on handicap debut at Kempton recently and would rate as a serious danger if proving as effective on turf. Wren Officer is more exposed than most but produced a fair effort last time and can complete the placings.
