Better than ever when landing Temple Stakes at Haydock in May. Not seen to best effect in King's Stand and Platinum Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot in June. Merits consideration back from a break.

Group 1 winner as a juvenile and seemingly revitalised by blinkers when landing 7-runner listed race at Chester (6f) in July. Well held faced with a much stiffer task at the Curragh (5f) since.

C&D winner in August and gained breakthrough win at listed level in 8-runner contest at Doncaster the following month. Clear of the rest when close third in World Trophy at Newbury (5.2f, good) 14 days ago and very much one to be interested in.

4-time C&D winner bounced back to form to land the Beverley Bullet for a second year running in August. Below form in World Trophy at Newbury last time but not taken lightly back at his beloved Ascot.

Stepped up slightly on his stable debut when 2¼ lengths fourth of 13 to Tis Marvellous in listed race at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 35 days ago, doing best work finish. This stiffer track should suit better.

Seemed to take a pretty big step forward upped in grade back on all-weather when second in Chipchase Stakes at Newcastle in June. Excuses in Stewards Cup and ran well for a long way in Korea Sprint at Seoul last time but needs more at this level.

9/1
Won 2 of his 4 starts last season, including Sandown Group 3. However, has offered little both starts back this season, so has questions to answer following a break/breathing operation.

Smart gelding who turned in his best effort of the season back in handicap company after just 7 days off when second at Haydock (5f, firm) 28 days ago, despite another slow start. Can make presence felt with a repeat.

Took a step back in the right direction under a change of tactics when fourth of 12 to Mitbaahy in World Trophy at Newbury (5.2f, good) 14 days ago, but he remains winless since second start at 2 yrs.

Proved better than ever after 2 months off when winning 17-runner handicap (14/1) at York (5f, good) 45 days ago, though had plenty in her favour (well drawn/ideal track position). Tougher task now but she could still have more to offer.

Forecasts

Manaccan (4/1), King's Lynn (4/1), Ainsdale (13/2), Tis Marvellous (13/2), Korker (15/2), Came From The Dark (9/1), Acklam Express (10/1), Designer (11/1), Method (12/1), Ebro River (14/1), Get Ahead (14/1), Annaf (28/1)

Verdict

MANACCAN has done nothing but improve this season and is very much one to keep on the right side of following an excellent third in the World Trophy at Newbury 2 weeks ago. King's Lynn drops in grade back from a break and merits consideration, along with last year's winner Tis Marvellous.
