Second at Lingfield (6f) in December but well below par on both runs since. A first-time tongue strap needs to help spark a revival.

Forecasts

Whats In The Bag (9/4), Above (5/2), Ganesha (4/1), Glendown (5/1), Jungle Run (10/1), Yazaman (11/1)

Verdict

ABOVE arrives in good form from AW and is taken to strike again under Billy Loughnane. Jungle Run should come on for last month's Southwell reappearance and can give Robert Cowell's 8-y-o most to do.
