The unexposed may be the answer. Since joining his current yard and stepping up in trip he has strung together two very solid efforts to suggest he can open his account. He followed his second here with a close third at Lingfield where he may have been a tad unlucky as he had to wait for a gap on the inside. A repeat should see him go close.
boasts two course and distance victories and remains well treated, having won off a 2lb higher mark in the past. He may pose the main threat though is consistent at this level and has slipped to a rating 1lb lower than when last successful. He is another to consider.
Park ASTROSPEED Viola Shamlan -%+, COMPAS SCOOBIE
A tight and competitive handicap but the in-form looks the best option. He has won two of his last three starts and is just 3lb higher than when scoring at Wolverhampton – form which has been franked. He returns from a 89-day absence but has won after a break before.
has finished third on his last three outings since winning over track and trip. He is relatively unexposed and may be capable of better. He is a possible along with
who has two course and distance wins to his name. He will appreciate the return to this trip after posting a decent effort over the minimum distance when last seen.

It was only in the final strides that got his head in front at Lingfield. That was just his second start over tonight’s trip and clearly it was what he needed. The handicapper couldn’t harm him for that narrow success and he has every chance to follow up, off a 1lb higher rating. was a more emphatic winner at the Surrey track and a 4lb rise does not appear harsh. He will push the selection and so will after a gusty win last week. That was at Chelmsford where he battled back to score narrowly from an in-form rival. Any market move for
would be of interest on his debut for a new yard after wind surgery.
