10/11
2 wins from 4 runs this year. Latest win at Chester in May. Shaped well in Jersey at Royal Ascot next time and wasn't seen to best effect on latest outing. Remains with potential and looks the one to beat.

Winner at Chester in May. 9/4, good third of 11 in handicap at Ascot (8f, good) 40 days ago. Might not have reached her limit yet and could get an easy lead.

Forecasts

Never So Brave (10/11), Fair Point (10/3), Alzahir (11/2), Ararat (13/2), Alaskan Gold (20/1)

Verdict

NEVER SO BRAVE hasn't been seen to best effect on both outings since scoring at Chester in May and he's fancied to get back on the up to see off the likes of Fair Point and Alzahir, who both arrive in good order.
