Took a step forward returning from 9 months off when second of 7 on handicap debut (11/2) at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm) 17 days ago, collared post. Should sharpen up for that outing and can progress again.

Lightly-raced maiden. Saw out the longer trip despite racing freely when second of 7 in handicap (8/1) at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Each-way claims.

Proved a different proposition back on turf to spring a surprise in 7-runner handicap (28/1) at Brighton (9.9f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Hard to know what to expect.

Forecasts

Knight Templar (6/4), Theworldsnotenough (4/1), Masonbrook Meadow (5/1), Budding (11/2), Continuance (11/1), Remarkable Flight (16/1), Big Lou (18/1), Ormering Tide (50/1)

Verdict

A few in with a squeak but preference is for KNIGHT TEMPLAR, who wasn't exactly strong in the betting but made a significant step forward when finishing runner-up over a much longer trip on handicap debut at Beverley earlier this month. He can get the better of Theworldsnotenough, who has returned an improved model this season. Masonbrook Meadow and Budding can fight out minor honours.

  1. Knight Templar6/4
  2. Theworldsnotenough4/1
  3. Masonbrook Meadow5/1
