Big career best when doubling tally at Redcar in August and has backed that up with a pair of excellent runner-up efforts, finding only a progressive one too good at Redcar on Monday. Claims are fairly obvious turned out quickly back on all-weather.
|
Produced his best effort to date on the back of a gelding operation when second of 8 over C&D last month, never nearer. Sound-enough fourth at Lingfield 2 weeks ago and he can remain competitive. Cheekpieces back on with Loughnane booked.
|
Put experience to good use to get off the mark in 9-runner Southwell novice (5f) in February but has failed to make a significant impact in handicaps since. Visor needs to sharpen her up.
|
Overcame obvious inexperience when winning novice at Kempton in December but was unable to land the odds at Newcastle the following month and has barely beaten a rival in handicaps.
|
Runner-up for fourth consecutive start on handicap debut at Southwell in July and a late jink (hung badly right) wasn't enough to stop her from going one better in 3-runner Ffos Las maiden subsequently. Another sound effort when second 2 weeks ago and she can be a factor again returned to 6f.
|
Completed a remarkable 7-timer in typical fashion from the front over C&D in March. Went into his shell on turf this summer and no immediate upturn in his fortunes returned to all-weather at Southwell 2 weeks ago. Did miss the break on that occasion and inching back to last winning mark.
|
Showed consistency on all-weather through the winter before winning a 6f turf handicap at Haydock for Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole in April. Easy to back and struggled in a higher grade on debut for new yard at Doncaster and ran even worse at Southwell latest.
|
Took a step forward sent handicapping in first-time blinkers with second of 14 at Kempton (1m) last month and backed up that improvement when filling the same position over 7f there 9 days later. Backward step on turf since but return to this surface should help his cause.
|
Very well backed in a visor for the first time when opening his account in handicaps at Lingfield 17 days ago. Up 4 lb in a better race but he's well drawn and is expected to be a factor again.
|
Got off the mark in 6f handicap at Southwell in April. Hasn't kicked on from that as hoped but way he shaped over 7f at Kempton a month ago suggests return to 6f is a good move.

Forecasts
Come On Over (2/1), Acclaimed Freedom (3/1), Korbut (4/1), Horace Wallace (11/2), Santiago Boy (12/1), Obsidian Verse (18/1), Flash Rascal (18/1), Million Gold (22/1), Hayynah (40/1), Beauzon (80/1)
COME ON OVER arrives in superb order and there's no reason why he won't give another very bold showing on the back of 2 runner-up efforts since his Redcar win. Horace Wallace is in a better race than at Lingfield but he did that well, while Beauzon is one to keep an eye on in the coming weeks on all-weather.
