6/1
Five-time course winner. Didn't need to improve to win 8-runner handicap (3/1) at this C&D 9 days ago by neck from Pals Battalion, always holding on. This is more demanding under a penalty.

17/2
12/1, eleventh of 16 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 12 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Down in trip and this 5-y-o will be a serious player if he puts his best foot forward.

Creditable neck second of 11 to Pals Battalion in handicap (40/1) at this C&D 26 days ago, running on. Record stands at 0-12 and he looks vulnerable for win purposes.

Forecasts

William Dewhirst (10/3), Pals Battalion (7/2), Bright (9/2), Flying Fletcher (5/1), Mondammej (6/1), Alzahir (17/2), Modern Times (12/1), Neapolitan (100/1)

Verdict

WILLIAM DEWHIRST has proved to be nothing short of a revelation here in recent months, making it 4-5 over here at this course when seeing off six rivals with plenty left in the tank last week. This drop back in trip is unlikely to be an issue and he will take plenty of stopping under a penalty. It would be something of an understatement to say things didn't go Alzahir's way at Chelmsford last time and he is next on the list ahead of Bright.
