First View^p⁷⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-4| J: L Morris| T: S bin Suroor| OR: 82| CD

4/1

A 3-time C&D winner but it's now 13 runs since last win in 2022 and only ninth of 11 in handicap (28/1) at Ripon (9.8f, good) 76 days ago. Others appeal more.

7/2

On the up since sent handicapping, scoring at Beverley in June before a very good second of 9 at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Very much one to consider on his polytrack debut.

Upwardly-mobile Pinatubo filly bagged Ffos Las handicap in June before backing it up with an excellent second of 9 at Newbury (7f, good) 25 days ago when conceding first run. Leading claims at these weights with this step up to 1m also a plus.

Forecasts

A War Eagle (7/2), Maybe Not (4/1), King Of Fury (4/1), First View (4/1), She's A Warrior (7/1), Rey De La Batalla (9/1), Kitaro Kich (12/1), Finsceal Luas (12/1), Loch Leven (18/1), Zoffandia (25/1), Emery Down (25/1), North View (33/1), Equion (40/1), Purefoy (125/1)

Ralph Beckett has his string in great nick and his improving MAYBE NOT gets a confident vote to quickly resume winning ways on the back of an excellent Newbury second with this first go over 1m also a positive. Fellow 3-y-o A War Eagle also has better days ahead of him and is next on the list, while Rey de La Batalla, King of Fury and Equion all need shortlisting too.
