Hasn't stopped improving this season and particularly impressive at Kempton; 7lb rise fair
3	Sail Away Grey J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Skelton T:Dan Skelton	161	t	9-PPF7	132	145	111	78d	—	—	+6	26.7	0.83/1	10/3 23%
Below par last time but previous run was encouraging and he's well handicapped
7	Dibble Decker Bay J:Stan Sheppard T:Tom Lacey	J:Stan Sheppard T:Tom Lacey	152	tp	123-85	123	145	104	25d	—	—	+4	24.4	0.83/1	10/3 23%
First and second in last two runnings; made mistakes when not far away at Ludlow latest

Won this last year so is too capable to be dismissed, but latest effort was a poor one
6	Hidden Heroics Bay J:Harry Atkins(7) T:Dan Skelton	J:Harry Atkins(7) T:Dan Skelton	158	—	P7-V1P	129	144	115	245d	—	—	+17	21	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Capable chaser but back from a break here and presumably rejected by Harry Skelton
5	Riskintheground Bay J:Charlie Todd T:Dan Skelton	J:Charlie Todd T:Dan Skelton	159	t	133544	130	144	133	22d	—	—	+19	22.4	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Outclassed last time but current form is an issue and Harry Skelton looks elsewhere
