Off 5 months before coming in eleventh of 12 in handicap at Catterick (7f, soft) 16 days ago. Visor on 1st time and handily weighted if it sparks a revival.

Forecasts

The Childe Of Hale (10/3), Political Power (7/2), Yaajooz (18/5), Bambalam (11/2), King's School (9/1), Kirkdale (9/1), Swiss Ace (18/1), Lessay (18/1), Cusack (20/1), Samra Star (25/1), Angel Of England (33/1), Neapolitan (50/1)

Verdict

A tight-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for YAAJOOZ who looks primed for a bold showing on the back of a good C&D second. Recent C&D winner Samra Star is next on the list, although Cusack, Bambalam, King's School and Kirkdale all need factoring in too.

  1. Yaajooz18/5
  2. Samra Star25/1
  3. Cusack20/1
