Ninth of 16 in handicap at Longchamp (12.4f, good to firm, 12/1). Off 8 months. First run for yard after leaving Fabrice Chappet. Not easy to make a case for.

1 win from 1 run this year. 6/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Goodwood (9.9f, soft) 23 days ago by neck from Qitaal, bit in hand. Enters calculations.

11/1
Promising individual. Latest win at Lingfield in March. Good fourth of 16 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good, 9/1) 23 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Makes plenty of appeal returning to this distance.

18/1, eleventh of 16 in handicap at York (10.2f, good) 10 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Maghlaak (10/3), Alpha Crucis (7/2), Bill Silvers (11/2), Qitaal (6/1), To Catch A Thief (8/1), Stressfree (8/1), Bystander (11/1), Arthur's Realm (14/1), Machete (20/1), Lord Protector (66/1)

Verdict

BYSTANDER hasn't finished improving and shaped well at Newmarket last time, so he's the one to side with returning to a trip that suits. Maghlaak is an obvious threat following his Goodwood success and Qitaal isn't without hope.
