Damascus Steel^b²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: N Callan| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 78| CD

12/1

3 wins from 11 runs this year. 25/1, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 27 days ago, cosily. Recent evidence has shown that he's no good thing to be in the same form.

Fair bumper winner and improved when winning 9-runner handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 15/2) 22 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Can do better again in this sphere and one to consider.

9/4

Latest win here in October. 7/2, good second of 13 in handicap at this C&D 19 days ago. Got to remain of interest as long as his issues at the start don't resurface.

5/2

Won at Carlisle in 2023 for James Horton. 11/4 and hooded for 1st time, fifth of 8 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good) 66 days ago, not ideally placed. Up in trip. Makes polytrack debut. Worth another chance.

Forecasts

Rockit Tommy (9/4), Touch The Moon (5/2), Appier (11/2), Francesco Baracca (7/1), Wiltshire Wonder (8/1), Selwan (10/1), Damascus Steel (12/1), Ocean Heights (16/1), Eton Blue (125/1)

Bumper winner WILTSHIRE WONDER overcame inexperience to score in good style on his handicap debut in this sphere at Southwell 3 weeks ago and can score again. Touch The Moon is interesting, while Rockit Tommy can continue to go well if starting on terms.
