Posted career best when decisively taking 8-runner handicap over C&D 14 days ago. Raised 8 lb since but is not taken lightly.

Four-time winner who got back on the up when close third of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 11/4) 57 days ago. Can race off same mark here and is one for shortlist.

12/1
Eighteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable sixth of 13 in handicap (18/1) at this C&D 28 days ago, met some trouble. Chance if rediscovering old form.

9/2
Scored twice earlier this year and only narrowly failed to add to those victories when second of 14 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 22 days ago. Return to longer trip a plus and must enter calculations.

11/2
Still looking for first success but made the frame again when creditable fourth of 13 in handicap over C&D (11/1) 28 days ago. Likely to give another good account.

Forecasts

Wyld Bill (6/4), Time Tested (10/3), Frostmagic (9/2), Mythical Bird (11/2), Live Each Day (15/2), Gifted Angel (12/1), Nibras Angel (12/1), Vilaine Verlaine (14/1), Gretna Dreams (22/1)

Verdict

TIME TESTED boasts a solid strike rate and looked a shade unlucky not to register another victory at Lingfield last month. He makes fair appeal in the finale. Wyld Bill and Frostmagic are feared most.
