Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good to firm, 16/5) 9 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Yard in good form and he's not taken lightly back up in trip.

Again below form when tenth of 11 in handicap (16/1) at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) 37 days ago. Becoming well treated but needs to bounce back to figure.

10/1
Second of 9 in minor event at Ayr (7.2f, good to firm, 9/2) 18 days ago. That was a positive effort but this should prove a tougher test back in handicap company.

50/1
Two wins from 43 Flat runs and is yet to pose a threat this season, though possible excuses can be found his most recent 2 efforts (grackle nosebanf became undone leaving stalls last time). Others make greater appeal.

Twenty eight runs since last win in 2023. 8/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good) 33 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Not easy to make a case for.

Forecasts

Without Delay (15/8), Ideal Guest (7/2), Langholm (5/1), Rain Cap (5/1), Obee Jo (11/2), Pinjarra (10/1), Golden Prosperity (12/1), Yoshimi (14/1), Queens Road Revue (22/1), John Kirkup (25/1), Going Underground (50/1)

Verdict

WITHOUT DELAY has scored at this C&D before and arrives on the back of a good effort at Musselburgh, so gets the nod over the veteran Langholm, who has been knocking on the door from similar marks of late. Ideal Guest should still benefit from the return to 7f and can complete the placings.
