Thriving of late, extending his winning sequence to 4 with a decidedly useful effort in 6-runner handicap chase at Bangor (24.1f) a fortnight ago, driven clear. Effective at this shorter trip and the one to beat with well-being assured.

Resumed winning ways in 6-runner handicap chase at Stratford (17f, good, 7/2) 13 days ago, able to dominate and scoring with a bit up his sleeve. Faces a stiffer task on these terms, however.

14:03 Newton Abbot - 19 September 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

ART OF DIPLOMANCY has been thriving this summer and gets the nod to continue his excellent spell with his well-being assured. Catch Him Derry, a notably progressive hurdler and a better prospect for the longer term, is sure to pose a big threat if fully tuned up for his chasing debut after a break.
