Bagged his second C&D win this summer in 7-runner novice (good) 41 days ago. Remains handily weighted back in handicap company so merits serious consideration.

Had a wind op before being pulled up in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (20.2f, good) 132 days ago. A fair 2m winner at his best but he needs to bounce back.

Bagged a pair of wins for Milton Harris last summer but well held all three starts for Syd Hosie, pulled up on his chasing bow at Stratford in June. Needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence.

Comes here in decent form without winning, third of 5 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, soft) 42 days ago. Merits consideration off an easing mark.

Forecasts

Grivetana (4/1), Jumeirah King (9/2), Doctor Parnassus (11/2), Playtogetaway (7/1), Jack The Savage (17/2), Pisgah Pike (10/1), Shelikesthelights (10/1), Donnie Azoff (10/1), Sea Prince (10/1), Call Me Rocky (33/1)

Verdict

A few with chances but JUMEIRAH KING remains on a lenient mark on the back of his C&D novice success so gets the vote. Grivetana continues in good form for Harry Derham and heads the list of dangers, while in-form duo Pisgah Pike and Playtogetaway also need factoring in. Jack The Savage completes the shortlist.
