Still looking for first success but has performed well in all 4 starts this year, latest when second of 10 in handicap (13/2) at this course (16.5f) 12 days ago. Races off same mark here and another bold bid is on the cards.

10/3
Run creditably, upped significantly in trip, when third of 10 in handicap at this course (16.5f, 6/1) 12 days ago, having run of race. With his mark unchanged, he is likely to be in the mix again.

16/1 and visored for 1st time tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 26 days ago. Others more persuasive.

13/8
Found improvement when getting off the mark over C&D in February and posted respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (16.5f, 11/10) since, not ideally placed. Holds leading claims.

Seventh of 10 in handicap (22/1) at this course (16.5f) 12 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Respectable third of 6 in minor event (5/1) at Newcastle (10.2f) 20 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Forecasts

Leon Trotsky (13/8), Fiftyshadesaresdev (10/3), Balgowan (4/1), Spartan Times (7/1), Yakhabar (14/1), Scylla (14/1), Typewritten (22/1), Unification (25/1), Kitten's Dream (66/1), Anificas Beauty (80/1)

Verdict

C&D winner LEON TROTSKY wasn't seen to best effect in his follow-up bid here last month and is fancied to make amends in the finale. The consistent pair Balgowan and Fiftyshadesaresdev should also go well.

  1. Leon Trotsky13/8
  2. Balgowan4/1
  3. Fiftyshadesaresdev10/3
