Unbeaten in two starts last year and highly tried when 25L last of 11 in a 1m Listed event at Newcastle on seasonal debut in April. Interesting runner back down in trip on first appearance in handicaps.
Good second in a C&D handicap on good-to-soft ground on his penultimate start and ran a fair race despite finishing fifth of six over 7f at Newmarket (good-to-firm) recently. Return to this trip a positive.
Finished runner-up on two of his three starts in handicaps including on good-to-soft ground at Haydock over this trip last month. Gelded since his latest outing and is of interest once more.
Three time winner most recently over this trip at Haydock (good-to-firm) in May. Failed to beat a rival home on two most recent starts and races off a mark 2lb higher than for that Haydock success.
Completed a double when seeing off Tenax by ½L in a good-to-soft ground C&D handicap earlier this month. Raised 3lb for that victory and another bolld show looks on the cards.

Forecasts
Pendleton (11/8), Tenax (5/2), Gale Force Maya (3/1), Society Queen (7/1), Exalted Angel (8/1), Look Out Louis (10/1), Lady Calcaria (10/1), Antagonize (16/1)
GALE FORCE MAYA has been in great form of late and she can complete a hat-trick with victory in this three-year-old only handicap. The selection can see off Tenax who finished runner-up to her earlier this month while third place can go the way of Pendleton who is making his first appearance since being gelded.
