Community Fund For Elmbridge Handicap

Stepped up on his previous efforts this year to win 6-runner event at Chepstow last month (1m, good to firm), acknowledging he had the run of things. Ran at least as well in defeat when second of 6 there 8 days later and not out of things nudged up a further 2 lb.

Yet to score for current connections but arrives in form, running as well as could've been expected when third of 6 over C&D (good) just under a fortnight ago. Back down in grade but likely to find a couple too strong.

Had a productive winter on the all-weather before making a winning return on the turf at Lingfield (7f) in June. Looks to be too high in the weights judged on both subsequent efforts so others more appealing.

Had a first-time visor applied and justified support in comfortable fashion for new connections in 5-runner event at Nottingham (8.3f, good) last week, drawing clear final 1f for hands-and-heels riding. Carries a 5-lb penalty here and fancied to take some stopping for his excellent new handler.

Has stood little racing in recent years and ran poorly on first outing for 6 months/since leaving Edward Smyth-Osbourne at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) recently. Handicapper drops him a chunk, but he has a bit to prove.

Won a 7f claimer in France last summer. Mixed bag for current connections, though bounced back to form when second of 12 over C&D (good) a fortnight ago. His task is to now back that up.
