Quickly developed in to a useful performer last year and shaped well on return at Newmarket (10f) in June. Disappointing here next time but has undergone wind surgery for new yard since.

Looked a reformed character when scoring at Southwell in January and added to his tally at Ascot in July. Creditable efforts both runs since but his mark looks high enough at present.

Useful sort who lost little in defeat to a fellow 4-y-o at Glorious Goodwood in July. Has failed to fire both starts since but isn't handicapped out of things if he can bounce back to form.

Recorded second win of the summer when getting up late in 12f handicap at Newbury in August. Just as good in defeat at Goodwood and Yarmouth subsequently and likely to continue in form.

Fairly useful bumper winner. Runner-up all 3 starts on Flat, shaping best on Lingfield handicap debut 10 days ago. Open to further improvement and of interest.

Verdict

BEHOLDEN wasn't beaten far when runner-up on his Lingfield handicap debut 10 days ago, despite being disadvantaged by the run of the race, so he's one to be interested in with further improvement likely. Rochester House has failed to fire on his last two starts, but it wouldn't be a total surprise to see him bounce back here.

  1. BEHOLDEN
