Britvic Soft Drinks Handicap

Unreliable individual. Course winner. Latest win at Newcastle in February. Not on a going day when eighth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (7f, 10/1) 41 days ago. Often starts slowly.

Has struggled to make an impact on AW this year but has dipped to the mark he won off on turf at Musselburgh last autumn. One to note in the betting.

6/1, last of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (7f) 45 days ago, reportedly bled. Tongue strap on first time. A return to the grass needs to help him get his career back on track.

11/1 and blinkered first time, sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) on reappearance 31 days ago. Visor back on now. Should be sharper for the run and Danny Tudhope does well for the yard. No shock if he goes well.

Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 18/1, creditable fourth of 10 in C&D handicap (heavy) when last seen in October. Claims if ready to roll after 6 months off.

Three-time C&D winner who has been largely consistent in defeat since scoring on AW at Newcastle in February. Good second of 8 in 6f course handicap on Monday and leading claims if coping with the quick turnaround.

Poor form in 7 outings for Adam West. A watching brief is advised on return for new stable after 11 months off.
