Had struggled in handicaps but clearly well served by the 2f longer trip and also a return to more positive tactics when winning 7-runner event at Catterick (1½m, good to firm). Up 6 lb but every chance he will kick on with this extra distance holding no fears.

EXC 1.03

Weight: 10st 1lbs
Or: 80

Has made a very promising start in handicaps, scoring at Redcar in April before doubling his tally in 6-runner event at Thirsk (1½m, good) last week, looking a straightforward sort. Promises to stay this longer trip and likely to take some stopping under a penalty.

Wardlaw (Usa)

EXC 1.03

Or: 68

Resumed improvement back on all-weather without it being enough against a more progressive rival when second of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (1½m) earlier in the month. Flashed his tail when coming under pressure that day and more severe headgear is reached for stepping up to 1¾m.

EXC 1.03

Runner-up in novice event at Bath in 2025 and matched that when filling same spot at Southwell (11f) on return. Improved again tackling handicap company for the first time when fourth of 14 at York (1½m, good) last month but this extra distance a slight concern.

Timeform Verdict

Having been very well backed, KING OF BERKSHIRE resumed his progress when doubling his tally at Thirsk last week and with this longer trip holding no fears, Andrew Balding's colt is expected to take some stopping under a penalty. Wardlaw put up his best effort yet when runner-up at Lingfield earlier in the month and he can edge out Red Rifle for the forecast spot.
