Eleven runs since last win in 2022. First run since leaving Michael Appleby when good third of 10 in handicap at Newbury (5.2f, good to firm, 14/1) 16 days ago. Remains well treated on old form and should go well again.

11/8

3-time C&D winner. Latest win at Leicester in July. Another sound effort when third of 5 in handicap at Salisbury (5f, good to firm, 6/4) 3 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Likeable sort should give another good account.

So Smart^p,t⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: Ray Dawson| T: G Harris| OR: 67| CD

11/1

Turned in best effort of the season when won 8-runner handicap at this C&D (good) 7 days ago, just holding on. Bit more needed to defy a penalty in this higher grade.

Forecasts

Connie's Rose (11/8), Navello (2/1), Michaela's Boy (16/5), So Smart (11/1)

A really trappy sprint, with cases to be made for each of the quartet, though MICHAELA'S BOY perhaps makes most appeal having had an encouraging start for the Robert Cowell yard last time. The consistent Connie's Rose is next best, though it's hard still hard to discount to her stablemate, the last-time-out winner So Smart, or the potentially well-handicapped Navello.
