Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 9 in handicap at Ffos Las (6f, good) 11 days ago. One to consider off the same mark.

Loco Lobo^h⁶⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: Isobelle Chalmers⁽⁷⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 53| CD

14/1

Shaped well after 8 months off when fourth of 12 in handicap here (6f, heavy, 50/1) 68 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. C&D winner can go well despite being 3 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 55810-4

Forecasts

Secret Mistral (2/1), Nogo's Dream (5/1), Dashing Harry (5/1), Oneforsue (11/2), Fahrenheit Seven (7/1), The Ridler (11/1), Level Up (14/1), Loco Lobo (14/1)

SECRET MISTRAL returned an improved model when going in over C&D and still looks ahead of her mark despite taking a 7 lb hike. Loco Lobo also made a promising reappearance when fourth here and rates a big danger on that effort despite being 3 lb "wrong" in the weights. Nogo's Dream and Oneforsue can also have a say in this competitive sprint.
