Disappointing before winning in good style in first-time blinkers at Salisbury; 8lb higher

Needs to build on his fourth at Sandown (1m2f, good) but it may be possible upped in trip

Running creditably; this combination of longer distance and first-time headgear could suit
5 (10)	Mafnood Bay J:Jim Crowley T:Richard Hannon	J:Jim Crowley T:Richard Hannon	132	b	235273	83	88	72	15d	—	—	+6	17.4	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Close third at Goodwood (1m3f, the furthest he's been) took his handicap score to 0-9

Placed in 1m2f/1m3f novices last two starts; needs better in today's first-time headgear

132 days off when third at Sandown (1m2f, good) on turf debut, with encouragement for 1m4f
2 (2)	Mighty Bandit Brown J:Tom Marquand T:Warren Greatrex	J:Tom Marquand T:Warren Greatrex	140	—	6216	82	91	67	14d	—	—	+13	19.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Won Pontefract maiden (soft) but tailed off when second favourite in handicap at Newmarket

Ran poorly on Tapeta in May and below form at Salisbury two months later
4 (5)	Ocean Heights Chestnut J:Hayley Turner T:David Pipe	J:Hayley Turner T:David Pipe	139	tp	-31973	81	84	69	23d	—	—	+12	15.3	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Fair third at Sandown (1m2f) latest; first-time cheekpieces join the usual tongue-tie
1 (8)	Maasai Mara Bay J:Charles Bishop T:John O'Shea	J:Charles Bishop T:John O'Shea	142	b	145-47	84	87	62	76d	—	—	+6	9.3	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Creditable two runs back on Flat but they don't suggest he's on a great mark
