Quick turnaround for this one after his win at Newcastle in the week, battled on well there despite not looking the easiest of rides. On same mark here and if over the effects of that race, holds a clear form chance.

Generally progressive for much of last year and acts on the track. Not beaten far despite finishing last here on latest start but drop back to 6f possibly not ideal, and handicapper may have him now. Place claims all the same.

Ran well on debut at Yarmouth last October, form that would take him close off this mark, but backward steps since then and most disappointing at Chelmsford last month. Possible he needed that though, so could yet do better.

Wasn't going anywhere until turning her fortunes around in a claimer at Lingfield last time, although the second is a disappointing sort and the form may not be worth that much. Nevertheless, a step back in the right direction and has chances.

Forecasts

The British Lion (13/8), Bungee Jump (2/1), Bezos (11/4), Elite Shadow (12/1)

Verdict

All four have some sort of question to answer, and some caution is advised. In the hope that his latest effort at Newcastle was an off day, THE BRITISH LION is taken to get back on track here. He could dominate this from the front and could be difficult to pass. Bezos may be able to get the better of Bungee Jump for the runner-up spot, as Elite Shadow needs to improve.
  1. The British Lion
  2. Bezos
  3. Bungee Jump
