Versatile sort. Well positioned in modestly-run affair when third at Catterick. Wasn't asked to lead when well below that level at York subsequently. Benefits from a sizeable drop in grade but very flimsy form so far this season.

Steadily progressive 4-y-o who resumed winning ways in good style at Redcar before following up in similar fashion at Nottingham in late May. Good claims to make it a hat-trick if returning from 8-week break in similar form.

Seen to maximum effect when runner-up in Windsor maiden (11.5f) second time up. Turned in a lacklustre display on handicap bow at Southwell 10 months ago. Hard to be confident he'll belatedly build on his standout effort. Engaged in 2015 Newbury Thursday.

6/4
Made a fine start in 3-y-o handicaps, winning at Leicester/Redcar before finishing 5¼ lengths third in a much better race at Doncaster. Has run a couple of stinkers in open company since but the one to beat if recapturing his previous form.

Fair maiden at best for Harry Eustace last year. Flattered in a couple of staying handicaps for current yard in recent months. Needs more to capitalise on falling mark.

Forecasts

Gaelic Approach (6/4), Tupero (2/1), Gibside (3/1), Twilight Safari (12/1), Port George (33/1)

Verdict

GAELIC APPROACH has the strongest form in the book and could deny Tupero a hat-trick if back on song.
