Without a win since 2018 but has been given a real chance by the handicapper and turned in his best effort of the season when third at Ayr (10f, soft) last week. Looks ready to strike.

Showed a good attitude to record a fourth handicap win at Windsor (10f) on return in August and has run well both starts since, just a bit too keen at Chester 12 days ago.

Good efforts when runner-up in 1m events at Haydock and Newbury but was below that level on first run since leaving Alan King when eighth of 12 at Doncaster 12 days ago. Back up in trip.

ARCTIC SOUND hasn't won for a long time but turned in his best effort of the season at Ayr last week, despite coming from a poor position, so looks ready to strike again. Victory Chime was just a bit too keen for his own good in returning headgear at Chester and should continue to run well, with course-specialist Highwaygrey also respected under his penalty.
