Lightly-raced maiden for Peter Chapple-Hyam. Off 4 months/gelded before making an encouraging start for new yard when third of 8 in handicap (18/5) at Chelmsford City (8f) 15 days ago. A likely player with that run under his belt.

Forecasts

Military Leader (5/1), Reginald Charles (11/2), Bullington Bry (6/1), Cill Mocheallog (7/1), Rogue Identity (8/1), Ardaddy (8/1), Heretic (10/1), Believe In Lies (12/1), Amarachi (12/1), Bomb Squad (14/1), Livio Milo (20/1), Blueandtangerine (25/1), Yoshimi (25/1), Fistral Beach (25/1)

A case can be made for plenty of these but ROGUE INDENTITY made a promising start for James Owen when third at Chelmsford City and this lightly-raced son of Lope De Vega can build on it here and open his account. Military Leader arrives in top form but again could have to settle for second, while Reginald Charles and Cill Mocheallog merit plenty of respect too. C&D scorer Bomb Squad completes the shortlist.
