Won twice in 2023. Tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving Charlie Appleby when eleventh of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good, 12/1) 72 days ago (returning from 2 years off). Up in trip. Hard to get a handle on but sire has good record at this track so worth a market check.

3 wins from 12 runs this year for Ian Williams. Probably needed run when fifth of 10 in handicap at this course (9.4f) 14 days ago on yard debut. Better expected this time and and sire has a fine record on this surface.

Forecasts

Arabian Tale (2/1), Estmrar (11/2), Al Mukhtar (13/2), Quality Humor (8/1), Moon Blade (10/1), Aablan (12/1), Ezaj (12/1), Truth Explained (14/1), Book Review (20/1), High Season (20/1), Go Soldier Go (25/1), Hans Andersen (25/1), Silent Age (25/1), Lahresh (33/1)

Verdict

SILENT AGE is not long with the Doug Watson yard and he should be capable of much better than he showed on stable debut last time, with his sire a potent force on this surface. Arabian Tale ran well last time and is next best, while the Crisford duo Estmrar and Aablan are also considered.
