1 win from 3 runs this year. Won 7-runner handicap (40/1) at Brighton (8f, good) 2 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces replace blinkers. Firmly in the picture.

Forecasts

Platinum Prince (2/1), Strategic Fortune (5/1), Edmund Ironside (6/1), Laurentia (15/2), Magical Dragon (9/1), Iftikhaar (10/1), Crazy Maisie (12/1), Certain Style (14/1), Barbarosa (20/1), On The Nose (28/1)

This looks wide open but EDMUND IRONSIDE can boast a course win and has fallen to a handy-looking mark so gets a tentative vote at the chief expense of recent Brighton scorer On The Nose. Certain Style, Strategic Fortune and Platinum Prince all command respect too.
