Successful on his respective return over C&D 12 months ago, ON THE RIVER shaped as if needing the run this time around when fifth in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago. Expected to take a step forward from that run, he's dropped 1 lb below his last winning mark and could well be worth chancing to come out on top. Perseverants comes here in fine form and should play a big part again, with Arkenstaar another to consider on return to action.
