Enhanced his solid record at this track when coming from off the pace over C&D 15 days ago

Has form claims but signed off for former yard with two sevenths; sold on for 15,000gns
9 (11)	Vince Le Prince Bay J:Sean Kirrane T:Tim Easterby	J:Sean Kirrane T:Tim Easterby	134	tp	8-2613	68	80	75	10d	—	—	-2	7.2	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Ran well at Thirsk last time off this mark but perhaps vulnerable from his wide berth
11 (3)	Saviour Bay J:Kevin Stott T:Hugo Palmer	J:Kevin Stott T:Hugo Palmer	132	ht	334-66	74	80	39	43d	—	—	0	8.5	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Only sixth in his two handicaps, failing to back up his 2yo novice form; now gelded
4 (1)	Saturnalia Bay J:Finley Marsh T:Richard Hughes	J:Finley Marsh T:Richard Hughes	140	p	74-354	74	82	58	41d	—	—	-1	8.7	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Fair latest run at Salisbury but he's yet to prove himself quite so effective on turf
1 (10)	Light Speed Bay J:Joanna Mason T:Gemma Tutty	J:Joanna Mason T:Gemma Tutty	142	—	-09907	76	80	45	22d	—	—	+1	8.6	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Neither run since moving yards was overly positive and he now has a lot to prove

Losing run is mounting up but he has each-way claims in his current run of form
7 (2)	Oso Rapido Bay J:Ray Dawson T:Roger Fell & Sean Murray	J:Ray Dawson T:Roger Fell & Sean Murray	136	—	007050	70	80	53	14d	—	—	+1	6.6	3.50/1	14/1 7%

Has won on only the AW but did make the frame here not long ago, albeit in a lower grade
13 (6)	Rainwater Bay J:Connor Murtagh T:Richard Fahey	J:Connor Murtagh T:Richard Fahey	127	p	2-4467	69	78	66	21d	—	—	+5	9.5	5.00/1	20/1 5%

Poor last time; unraced here and he's drawn wide, so others appeal more
10 (4)	Wyvern Brown J:Harry Burns(3) T:Patrick Morris	J:Harry Burns(3) T:Patrick Morris	134	p	0-9050	68	79	19	43d	—	—	+3	5.2	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Three-time winner stuck on a losing run and finished last over C&D on stable debut
