Has shown ability in handicaps with a 2nd at Southwell and 3rd-place finishes at Chelmsford and Ffos Las. 5th of 9 at Wolverhampton (9f, 4/1) 58 days ago, below form when ridden closer to pace. Can perform better based on earlier placed efforts.

Won a Windsor handicap over 8f in May and placed third at Southwell in August. Fourth of 12 in handicap at Kempton over 8f (25/1) 26 days ago, running well despite breathing operation and not getting clear run 2f out. Should be competitive off this mark.

10/1
Has shown mixed form with decent third-place finishes in autumn. Came last of 9 in handicap at this course and distance (9/2) 21 days ago, turning in a rather flat display after taking a keen hold. Remains capable on better days but needs to settle better to show true ability.

Forecasts

Barry's Boy (15/8), Rajapour (11/4), Flightofthephoenix (4/1), Equion (6/1), Caragio (17/2), Beaming Light (10/1), I Am Me (10/1), Yokkell (25/1)

Verdict

FLIGHTOFTHEPHOENIX has shown consistent ability with several placed handicap efforts and looks set to bounce back from a below-par run here when ridden too prominently 58 days ago. Barry's Boy caught the eye at Kempton following a breathing operation despite traffic problems and should be competitive. Beaming Light has ability but needs to settle better than when keen here last time.
