Lingfield Park 17:50 Odds Comparison

Failed to build on 2-y-o debut success when down the field in a Thirsk novice in September but step back in the right direction when runner-up on return at Kempton (6f). Still, improvement will be needed if he's to make a winning handicap debut.

Performed well above market expectations when third in an 8-runner Kempton handicap (6f) back from a break last month. Proved that that was no flash in the pan when runner-up at Newcastle (6f) and another bold show likely.

Successful 3 times and runner-up twice from 5 since the turn of the year, producing his best effort yet when seeing off 11 rivals over this C&D last time. 3 lb nudge fair enough and likely to be in the thick of things.

Placed on 2 of his 3 starts as a juvenile and the steady gallop caught him out when a close third on return at Chelmsford (6f) in February. Should get a strong pace to aim at now pitched into a handicap and he's high on the shortlist.

Placed in 2 C&D novice events either side of an odds-on reverse in Newcastle maiden. The first-time cheekpieces he sported here last time are retained and he has to be considered for his in-form yard now handicapping.

Progressive on the all-weather prior to finishing well down the field off this mark on handicap/turf debut at Thirsk (5f, good) recently. Return to an artificial surface may help but wide draw is off-putting.

Started and ended 2-y-o campaign with wins at Wolverhampton, bringing the curtain down on his campaign by winning a 7f nursery there in November. 5 lb rise not the end of the world and drop back to this trip shouldn't be an issue.

Won twice last summer but was always behind when coming home last of 8 on return at Wolverhampton (5f) and yard saddles a more appealing candidate in Manly Fireball.

Did well as a 2-y-o for Dylan Cunha and stepped on reappearance/stable debut display when a close fourth to Alasrae over C&D earlier this month. However, ran poorly at Bath last time and he's opposable on the back of that.

Ran well on turf after winning a 5f Wolverhampton maiden last summer but has struggled since, including on his reappearance back at Wolverhampton 28 days ago.
