3 wins from 14 runs this year, latest at Doncaster in July. 11/2, eighth of 14 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good) 24 days ago, doing too much too soon. Well worth another chance off an unchanged mark.

Forecasts

Zozimus (3/1), Mysteryofthesands (6/1), The Cookstown Cafu (6/1), Al Marmar (7/1), My Harrison George (9/1), Beylerbeyi (10/1), Arkenstaar (14/1), Casilli (14/1), Kalamunda (14/1), Terries Royale (16/1), Naval Academy (18/1), Georgie Wooster (33/1), Million Thanks (33/1)

Verdict

This is wide open so at the likely odds it is worth siding with BEYLERBEYI to bounce back in style having gone too freely at Yarmouth last time and bag a fourth win of 2024. Nottingham runner-up Terries Royale heads the list of dangers with few miles still on the clock, although in-form trio Casilli, Zozimus and Al Marmar all need factoring in too.

  1. Beylerbeyi10/1
  2. Terries Royale16/1
  3. Casilli14/1
