Progressive in handicaps and did it readily last time; could still be mileage in his mark

Step back in right direction when fifth of 16 at Ascot last month and may build on that

Running consistently well this season (including over C&D) and she's on the shortlist

Kept on well for 4th over 2m3f latest; today's further step up in trip could be ideal
5	Harbour Lake br Tom Cannon · Alan King	Tom Cannon · Alan King	154	—	P45-P5	128	147	-	47d	—	—	+14	21.6	9/1 10%

2	Kateira b Nico de Boinville · Dan Skelton	Nico de Boinville · Dan Skelton	162	—	112-32	136	144	91	110d	—	—	+16	23.7	17/2 11%
Underwhelming last autumn but could be on a good mark judged on April's Grade 1 second

Has won his last two; up 9lb for last time but progressive & could have more left in tank
