C&D winner who has been in good form this year, scoring twice and posting creditable third of 11 in handicap at Haydock (7f, good, 15/2) when last seen in May. Warrants respect on return to action.

Matched season's best form when creditable third of 12 in handicap (12/1) at Epsom (7f, soft) 25 days ago. One of likelier contenders.

11/1

Took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (6f, good) 3 weeks ago. Can get competitive if building on that.

12/1

Fared better than of late when respectable seventh of 15 in handicap at Redcar (7f, good) 12 days ago. Claims if building on that.

Back on track when creditable third of 9 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good to soft, 6/1) 9 days ago. This looks tougher, though.

Forecasts

Fine Interview (13/8), Harry's Halo (11/4), Orbital Chime (7/1), Punchbowl Flyer (11/1), Canaria Queen (12/1), Alfie Boy (12/1), Wichahpi (16/1), Blufferonthebus (20/1), Beauty Choice (25/1), Wessex (100/1)

HARRY'S HALO wasn't ideally placed when third in a stronger contest at Haydock last time and gets the nod in an open-looking finale. Punchbowl Flyer and Beauty Choice can also make their presence felt.
