Winner on handicap debut at Newcastle (1m) in December. Respectable efforts in defeat on return this spring, finishing fourth of 7 over 1¼m at Wetherby last time. Up in trip again.

Poor form. Placed in 1¼m handicaps on Newcastle's all-weather but well beaten in a classified event there last time. Others more persuasive.

Didn't figure in 3 all-weather outings over 7f/1m last December but he has a smart pedigree and could be one of many from the yard whose form takes off in handicaps.

Showed enough in 3 outings last month to think he has ability and the application of cheekpieces on handicap debut could be a good move given he was often soon off the bridle in his qualifying runs.
Timeform Verdict
This could develop into a straight fight between SPIRIT DREAMER and Mountbatten, who are likely improvers in handicaps for good stables. The former appeals as likely to benefit from the addition of today's first-time cheekpieces and is narrowly preferred.
Betting Forecast
7/1 Dalamara, 11/1 Manbearpig (Ire), 14/1 Project Kinsman (Usa), 2/1 Mountbatten (Ger), 20/1 Echo Valley, 13/8 Spirit Dreamer (Ire)
