Return to form needed but he runs off last winning mark; one to watch in the betting

Fair efforts in the spring in first two handicaps; needs something extra but he's only six
5	Horn Cape Grey J:Richie McLernon T:Ben Haslam	J:Richie McLernon T:Ben Haslam	151	—	382413	110	129	121	28d	—	—	+14	31.5	1.00/1	4/1 20%
In top form the last twice and could play a leading role now back down in trip

Disappointing at Aintree but progressive previously and could bounce back with a big run

Absent since pulled up over fences in February but progressive otherwise last season
