Shaped with promise on debut at Windsor but failed to match that form faced with testing ground when fourth of 7 in 7f novice at Leicester (heavy) 8 days ago. Worth another chance to build on debut form.

Forecasts

Qazaq (1/14), Tex (13/2), Huntly Lodge (20/1), Forest Haze (66/1), Shades Of May (66/1), Doctor Awtaad (100/1)

QAZAQ created an excellent impression when making a winning start under a hands-and-heels ride at Chelmsford 10 months ago and this appeals as an outstanding opportunity to maintain his unbeaten record. Tex was possibly unsuited by conditions at Leicester last week and looks the one to follow the selection home if returning to something like his debut form.
