Mixed form in handicaps before being transformed by first-time cheekpieces when winning 8-runner 10f event at Newbury (11/1) 16 days ago despite meeting trouble. The effectiveness of the cheekpieces remains the key factor.

Second at Chelmsford (10f) in April, then third of 5 in a 12f handicap at this course (6/1) 14 days ago under an exaggerated waiting ride. Returns to 10f.

Third in handicap here (6/1) 41 days ago before finishing fifth of 9 in handicap at Ascot (20/1) 15 days ago, poorly placed after slow start. Likely to remain competitive.
|
Registered a second C&D success in 4-runner handicap 14 days ago, making all and just holding on despite an ungainly head carriage when pressured. Clearly goes well at this venue and ought to remain competitive.
|
Twice third in maidens last August before seventh of 12 in novice at Wolverhampton (9/1) 98 days ago, hampered by poor draw and no clear run. Open to improvement making handicap debut up in trip.

Won back-to-back 10f handicaps in May before finishing 2 lengths second at Sandown in June. Third of 6 in a 10f handicap at Newmarket (7/1) 8 days ago, taking a keen hold and beaten only by a less-exposed pair from the same age group. Consistent performer who typically gives his running.

Forecasts
Antelope (9/4), Dayzee (3/1), Skibo (9/2), Crystal Mariner (6/1), Patsy Snugfit (13/2), Tribal Wisdom (7/1)
ANTELOPE has been a model of consistency this season with back-to-back wins followed by creditable placed efforts. He's taken to overcome C&D specialist Patsy Snugfit, who made all when winning here 14 days ago despite an ungainly head carriage when pressured. Skibo remains with potential now venturing into a handicap over a longer trip and is another to consider in a tightly-knit affair.
