Pegasus Pumps Handicap

Proved disappointing in all 3 starts this term, including when tried in first-time blinkers at Windsor latest. Hard to recommend.

Back from 28 months off when seventh of 9 in handicap at Goodwood (12f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Entitled to build on that but others are more convincing.

Returned to winning ways at Leicester (11.8f) in May and followed up, off 5 lb higher, in 7-runner handicap at Bath (17.1f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Remains feasibly treated for hat-trick bid.

Improved handicapping/upped in trip, scoring at Redcar (14f) in May and following up at Nottingham (14f, good to firm) 4 weeks ago. 5 lb rise may not be enough to prevent further success.

Lightly-raced maiden who was suited by step up in trip when very good third of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (11.6f, soft) 33 days ago. May have more to offer yet.

Made winning return at Bath (11.6f) in April and run creditably in defeat since, latest when second of 6 in handicap at Ffos Las (14f, soft) 18 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again.

Took a step forward on his handicap bow when scoring at Kempton (12f) in April and matched that form when runner-up at Salisbury (12f) the following month. Not quite in same form over longer trip latest, however and others are more appealing.
