Notched fifth victory over this C&D when taking 11-runner handicap earlier this month by ¾ length from Bazball. Carries 4 lb penalty but looks sure to go well again.

Not scored for 2 years but posted best effort for some time when ¾-length second of 11 to Asadjumeirah in handicap over C&D 11 days ago. Remains nicely treated and must enter calculations.

Largely acquitted himself well in sprint handicaps this term, latest when fourth of 12 in handicap (13/2) at Southwell (6.1f) 33 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again.

One win from 24 Flat runs. Twelve runs since last win in 2024. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap (17/2) at Southwell (6.1f) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others more appealing. 1 lb out of the weights.

Seventeenth of 19 in handicap (16/1) at Navan (5.8f, good). Off 125 days. First run for yard after leaving C. P. Donoghue. Worth monitoring in market on yard debut. 1 lb out of the weights.

Forecasts

Invitorio (7/2), Bazball (4/1), Respectful (11/2), Asadjumeirah (15/2), She'sashambles (15/2), Golden Duke (17/2), Little Mi Mi (9/1), Captain Pickles (11/1), Pancake (25/1), South Road (25/1)

Verdict

Preference is for INVITORIO, who has tumbled down the weights and posted his best effort for Ruth Carr when runner-up in a stronger contest last week. Bazball and Asadjumeirah rate the principal dangers.

  1. Invitorio7/2
  2. Bazball4/1
