Dual all-weather winner. Caught wider than ideal when third of 11 in claimer at Wolverhampton (6f) 20 days ago (final start for Jack Morland). New stable among the winners.

Smart form at best in France. Lost his way during 2025 but has shaped as if building up to something for current yard this season, not seen to best effect when never-nearer fourth of 11 at Musselburgh (7f) last time. Gets the vote.

On a hat-trick after a pair of 7f Southwell wins last month. Has to be respected in current mood but has never won on turf.

Won this race under Sean Kirrane last year. Bit mixed this year but latest 1m Ayr sixth creditable and he's feasibly handicapped again.

Ex-Richard Hannon gelding who has been shaping up well in defeat for his new yard this season, including sixth of 15 in handicap (4/1) at York (1m, good to firm) 25 days ago. Enters calculations.

Finally off the mark in handicaps when making all at Musselburgh (7f, good to firm) 7 weeks ago. His stable's continued good form provides hope that he can build on that.

Has been thriving this year, gaining a fifth success of the campaign in a 7f Redcar handicap in May. Also placed in May/June but his run of good form came to a halt at Doncaster last time.

Bounced back to his best with his reappearance under his belt when winning 11-runner handicap at Newcastle (7f) in March but well held in a couple of big-field races at York in May. First outing for 3 months.

Bar a disappointing effort at the Doncaster Lincoln meeting he's done well since visored, bouncing back to form with a bang to land a 22-runner York handicap (7f, good) in May. Good fifth of 18 in handicap at York (7f, good, 11/2) 26 days ago. Likely to figure.

Three all-weather wins between October and January. Tenth of 11 in handicap at Southwell in February and off since. Former course scorer but may need this after his break.

Forecasts

Son (10/3), Native Instinct (10/3), Golden Strike (7/2), Commander Of Life (9/2), Misunderstood (11/2), Count Palatine (17/2), King Of Fury (10/1), Lord Capulet (14/1), Lord Bertie (16/1), Havana Prince (20/1), Hunky Dory (50/1), Vince Lombardi (66/1)

Verdict

MISUNDERSTOOD has been shaping up quite well in recent starts and may prove the answer to this competitive handicap. Commander of Life, Golden Strike, Son and Native Instinct head the many dangers.
