Should be sharper after last month's Thirsk return and was progressing fast last summer

2-2 for new yard after lengthy absence; bred to relish today's longer trip; obvious claims

Two 1m4f AW wins since November; solid turf run latest (1m2f); one of the likelier ones

C&D win last month came in a small field; more required off today's 3lb higher mark

Conditions to suit and on a winning mark; can leave recent reappearance behind him

1m winner here for R Varian last October; fair form for new yard but this looks too tough

Well beaten on Ripon reappearance and this trip has looked to stretch him in the past
10 (12)	El Picador Bay J:Oisin Orr T:Lucinda Russell	J:Oisin Orr T:Lucinda Russell	129	—	40/05-	83	95	45	200d	—	—	+8	8.5	25.00/1	100/1 1%
