Returned to winning ways in 9-runner handicap at this course (12f, AW, 4/1) 6 days ago, quickening up well from the rear. Carries penalty but looks capable of following up with yard in good form.

Forecasts

Knockbrex (10/11), Hitched (4/1), Epsom Faithfull (9/2), Vibrato (6/1), No Surrender (14/1)

Verdict

KNOCKBREX bounced back to his best with a ready success at this course last week and he looks to hold leading claims under a penalty. With his yard going well, he can see off the challenge of 4-time course winner Epsom Faithfull, while Hitched also arrives in good form and could be in the mix.

  1. Knockbrex10/11
  2. Epsom Faithfull9/2
  3. Hitched4/1
