5/1
6/5, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Newmarket (8f, heavy) 11 days ago. 5 lb rise fair enough and this 4-y-o can make his presence felt with conditions again likey to be in his favour.

12/1
Latest win at Newmarket in July. 18/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap at the same course (7f, good) 16 days ago, running on. Return to this trip may help and he has performed well both previous visits here.

7/2
Three wins from 8 runs this year. Career best when winning 9-runner handicap (4/1) at Epsom (8.5f, heavy) 25 days ago. He was well on top at the finish there and a 6 lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from going in again.

7/4
Promising sort. Creditable second of 13 in handicap at Ayr (8f, good to firm, 15/8) 18 days ago. In good hands and, with clear scope for improvement, this son of No Nay Never will be a danger to all if he handles conditions.

Forecasts

Never Better (7/4), Tribal Chief (7/2), Terries Royale (5/1), Urban Lion (7/1), Where's Freddy (12/1), Repertoire (20/1), Dream Pirate (25/1), Dazitoo (25/1), Niigata (25/1)

Verdict

With his yard going great guns TRIBAL CHIEF is taken to complete the hat-trick. He's gone up a total of 12 lb for his victories at Kempton and Epsom but there's good reason to believe that he may still harbour secrets from the handicapper. Provided he goes on the ground Never Better will be a serious threat given his potential, while recent Newmarket scorer Terries Royale and Urban Lion are others to consider.
