Has improved further this year with cheekpieces fitted, winning 5f Musselburgh handicap and in the frame in Palace House Stakes. Another solid effort when fading 11th in Ayr Gold Cup last time so he merits serious consideration back at 5f off a 3 lb lower mark.

Scored at Chester in June but below par since, only eighteenth of 22 in handicap at York (5.4f) 38 days ago. Needs to get back on track.

Lost his way last term, but more like it this time around, landing two Doncaster 5f handicaps during the summer. Not disgraced in Portland there last time and he's not without each-way hope back to bare 5f now.

Given a smart tactical ride when winning 4-runner conditions event at Nottingham (5f) 46 days ago on his final run for Michael Appleby. No forlorn hope on his yard debut.

Resumed with 5f Windosr success and unlucky not to go in again when second of 12 there 23 days ago, just failing having had to wait for a run. Well in the mix.

Dual 5f/6f winner last September who has got right back on track of late in a visor, fourth of 19 in Portland at Doncaster last time. Considered.

Yet to score in 2022, and he came in last of 19 in Portland at Doncaster (5.6f) 13 days ago. Others are more persuasive.

Losing run continues to mount up but he posted a good third of 19 in Portland at Doncaster 13 days ago. This C&D winner needs considering for place purposes.

Bagged his second success of 2022 with a career best in 5f handicap at Newmarket 28 days ago. Up 6 lb but he's not taken lightly in his current mood.

In good form for his current yard until coming in last of 9 in handicap at Chester (5.5f) 35 days ago. This C&D winner could easily bounce back here, though.

Forecasts

Count D'Orsay (10/3), Nomadic Empire (6/1), Alligator Alley (6/1), Zarzyni (13/2), Isle Of Lismore (8/1), Equality (17/2), The Thin Blue Line (9/1), Show Me Show Me (11/1), Sound Reason (12/1), Stone Of Destiny (14/1), Burning Cash (18/1), Sunday Sovereign (22/1), Ventura Flame (28/1), Copper Knight (28/1), Night On Earth (33/1), Glory Fighter (33/1)

14:40 Haydock - 24 September 2022 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

ZARZYNI arrives in excellent nick but has been dropped 3 lb for a solid run in the Ayr Gold Cup when not lasting home and can capitalise now returned to the minimum trip. Burning Cash is another who should benefit from this bare 5f and he is next on the list, although Ventura Flame is weighted to go well and a solid case can also be made for Equality, Nomadic Empire and Isle of Lismore in a particularly open sprint.
