Second of 9 in novice event at Thirsk (7f, good to soft, 11/8) 20 days ago, well positioned. Likely to improve and he's a big player.

Victory Shout²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: S H James| T: K R Burke

5/4

Left debut run well behind when fourth of 8 in novice event (22/1) at Haydock (8f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Sets the bar pretty high.

Form: 54

Forecasts

Victory Shout (5/4), Apiarist (2/1), Silent Move (7/2), Love Safari (9/1), Apache Angel (200/1)

VICTORY SHOUT left his debut form well behind when fourth in a fairly useful novice at Haydock last month and a repeat of that level may well suffice. Apiarist and Thirsk-winner Silent Move will ensure the selection doesn't have it all his own way.
