Landed 5f Leicester handicap in June and much better than his recent form figures suggest, once more denied a clear run in C&D handicap 6 days ago, Figures off a handy mark.

Made it 3 wins from last 4 starts when scoring over C&D last month and shaped better than bare result when fifth of 13 in handicap (11/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 19 days ago. Shortlisted.

Forecasts

Sam's Hope (3/1), Bang On The Bell (4/1), Ziggy's Triton (9/2), Popular Dream (5/1), Thankuappreciate (8/1), Winchurch (10/1), Fiorella Princess (14/1), Law Of Average (16/1), Glory Fighter (16/1)

Verdict

SAM'S HOPE has been in terrific form and wasn't seen to best effect when fifth at Wolverhampton last month. She can resume winning ways. Winchurch and Ziggy's Triton should also go well.
