Has won over C&D on both previous visits and did it wel lhere last time off a 3lb lower mark. Seems certain to give it another good go at his happy hunting ground.
Just 1lb better off for the 15 lengths he was beaten by Knockgraffon King here in January but has since gone much closer when edged out at Wetherby off 2lb lower mark.
Won over this trip at Perth last June off 6lb lower mark but this previous C&D winner failed to land a blow in three subsequent runs last summer. Returns after six month break and may be better for the run unless market suggests otherwise.
Has done really well since joining current yard from Ireland last April finishing in the frame in all eight starts and winning last two here, both over 3m. Drop back in trip a concern off 3lb higher mark but clearly in fine fettle at present.
Forecasts
Knockgraffon (1/1), Mixboy (10/3), Elmono (7/2), Indian Temple (13/2)
An intrguing four-runner handicap chase in which all four have some sort of a chance. Narrow preference is for top weight KNOCKGRAFFON who loves this place and is only 3lb higher than his win here a couple of months ago. Elmono may prove the biggest danger in receipt of 22lb having been thoroughly consistent for his current yard, but both Mixboy and Indian Temple cannot be ruled out either if things go their way. The betting market could well prove highly informative.
