Finished closer than previously when 4¾ lengths eighth of 11 to Top Biller in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 40/1) 19 days ago, though only beat a few home even having been well positioned. Makes polytrack debut.

Didn't offer much in his 3 starts last year, last of 13 in novice at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm, 150/1) in September. Makes handicap debut on first run for yard after leaving Michael Appleby.

11/1
Best effort when third at Wolverhampton on nursery debut in September. Possibly needed run after 10 weeks off when sixth of 8 in nursery (14/1) at this C&D 42 days ago, but will need to find improvement.

7/2
After 4 months off and with blinkers applied, much improved when winning at Wolverhampton in January. Backed that up when fourth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 9/1) 13 days ago, so he's not taken lightly.

8/11
Has benefited from the application of cheekpieces last 2 starts, winning 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (5f, 9/4) 17 days ago, making running and in command final 1f. Can make another bold bid.

After 4 months off, took a step forward when 2½ lengths third of 8 to Sunny Time in handicap at Lingfield (5f, 9/2) 17 days ago. Could still have more to offer so she's one to consider.

After a further 11 weeks off, fared better than previously making second handicap start when 3¾ lengths fourth of 8 to Sunny Time at Lingfield (5f, 33/1) 17 days ago. Task is now to build on latest effort.

Down the field in 5 starts last year and fared little better when 4¾ lengths fifth of 8 to Sunny Time in handicap at Lingfield (5f, 50/1) 17 days ago. Much more required.

Forecasts

Sunny Time (8/11), Top Biller (7/2), Kameko Spirit (5/1), Love Rock (11/1), Navarre Special (22/1), La Mer Grise (28/1), Orlando Magic (40/1), The Magic Turtle (50/1)

Verdict

SUNNY TIME has been going the right way with cheekpieces added on his last 2 starts, making all to open his account at Lingfield last time, and he is taken to score again now that he's up and running. Top Biller has also improved since headgear has been applied and is feared most, ahead of Kameko Spirit.
