Good third of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 22/1) 9 days ago. Will need to build on that to take this.

Fortunate to be awarded the race at Lingfield on penultimate start but only sixth of 8 on handicap debut (3/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 48 days ago. Remains early days and top apprentice takes off a valuable 7 lb.

6/1, went one better than on his sole start in nurseries when winning 9-runner handicap at Goodwood (9.9f, good to firm) 16 days ago, quickening to lead late on. Up just 3 lb and given he scored with a bit up his sleeve, he has to be taken seriously.

15/8, didn't need to improve to win 7-runner handicap at Bath (10.2f, good to firm) 14 days ago, leading under 2f out and always holding on. 4 lb rise to contend with but looks competitive on form.

Forecasts

Al Azhar (10/11), Aryaah (5/1), Island Bandit (8/1), Homeric (17/2), Night Arc (9/1), Wolf Of Oxshott (14/1), My Boy Jack (22/1), Secret Service (33/1)

18:50 Leicester - 16 May 2022 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

The progressive AL AZHAR had a bit up his sleeve when making a winning reappearance at Goodwood recently, clearly well at home over this longer trip. Nudged up just 3 lb for that cosy success, he gets the verdict to go in again. Aryaah didn't need to improve to get off the mark at Bath a fortnight ago so he's put forward as the main threat, ahead of Homeric.

  1. Al Azhar10/11
  2. Aryaah5/1
