Advanced his form when a close third at Newcastle but was unable to reproduce that back on turf since. However, his 2 best performances have come on the all-weather and he remains unexposed on this surface.

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: S D Bowen| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 45

Forecasts

Viking Glory (15/8), Musical Soldier (9/4), Bird Of War (9/4), Strong Voice (11/4), Quick Quasar (11/2), Chapman's Peak (11/2), Coxy's Star (14/1), Tie Fighter (20/1), Ragaire (66/1), Athena's War (80/1)

VIKING GLORY finally came good for this yard when winning at Brighton 3 weeks ago and the manner of his success suggests he can defy a 5 lb rise. Musical Soldier has taken well to the fitting of cheekpieces and rates the obvious threat, with Bird of War best of the others.
