Latest win at Chelmsford City in April. Good second of 12 in handicap (9/1) at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Solid claims.

Twelfth of 14 in handicap at York (11.8f, good, 9/2) 17 days ago, but he's usually pretty reliable and enters calculations on the strength of his encouraging reappearance third at Musselburgh.

6/1
Respectable third of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 33 days ago. Has slipped to a potentially handy mark, but one or two of the others make more appeal based on recent exploits.

Sixth of 9 in handicap (10/3) at Newcastle (10.2f) 20 days ago. Needs to get back on track now returned to turf, but he certainly won't be without a chance if able to do just that.

Winner at Salisbury in May. Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap (15/2) at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Should give another good account.

Forecasts

Cavalry Call (15/8), Odin Legacy (11/4), Papagei (3/1), Appier (6/1), Ninth Life (10/1)

Verdict

While this looks pretty trappy, CAVALRY CALL is a strong candidate in current form. Indeed, he has raised his game equipped with a visor of late and was only collared in the dying strides at Windsor 12 days ago. Papagei will be a threat if putting his latest below par effort behind him, while Odin Legacy, who was 1½ lengths adrift of the selection when fourth at Windsor last time, is also in with a shout.
