ICS Cleaning Services Handicap

With a tongue tie fitted has improved his form the last twice, albeit throwing away a winning opportunity when letting Vietnorm in at Ripon (1¼m, good) 22 days ago, clear 1f out but hanging right/flashing tail and headed post. Clearly has the ability to win a race like this.

Modest maiden who ran about as well as he ever has when staying on to take third in 7-runner 1m Ripon handicap 3 weeks ago. This longer trip will suit on that showing.

Easy to back but took a step forward sent handicapping when second in C&D contest 18 days ago, having the run of the race and only denied by one who found more improvement. Interesting on the back of that.

Gelded and much improved as he made a winning return in 8-runner handicap at Ripon (1¼m) 22 days ago, relishing the longer trip and overhauling Bradbury on the post. Third that day won next time and he has more to offer after a 3 lb rise.
