Modest form at best as a 2-y-o but has finished well held in 2 handicaps this season. Stable switch (left Brian Ellison) will need to bring about a change of fortunes.

Promising debut Redcar third a year ago and took a step back in right direction switched to handicap company fitted with blinkers and tongue strap when a never-nearer fourth of 7 at Brighton (6f, good) 13 days ago. Still less exposed than most.

Made the frame 4 times as a juvenile and made an encouraging return when fifth of 8 in handicap (16/1) at Catterick (7f, good) last month. Entitled to come on from that.

Back from 9 weeks off when good close fourth of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) last month but ran no sort of race when last of 6 here (5f) 11 days ago. Will need to bounce back in first-time cheekpieces.

Showed improved form to score on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (6f) in February. Backed that up when second there (6f again) in March but below par switched to turf at Nottingham in April.

Right back on track upped to 7f when second of 9 at Redcar last month and looked as if he'd benefit from the drop back to a sprint trip when fourth at that same C&D last time, unable to last home having gone freely in front. Makes plenty of appeal at this trip with cheekpieces back on.

Has done well since being returned to sprinting in recent weeks, filling the runner-up sport for the third consecutive start when second of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Should go well again.
Timeform Verdict
LONG SHOT arrives after 2 good efforts over 7f at Redcar and the drop back to a sprint trip should suit the Tim Easterby-trained gelding, so he gets the verdict over Battenburg Belle, who may have to settle for the runner-up spot for the fourth start in a row. Rivera Queen can complete the 1-2-3.
Betting Forecast
25/1 Our Hero Matty (Ire), 13/2 Rivera Queen (Ire), 8/1 Thehunnebelllegacy, 14/1 Saxon Grace (Ire), 12/1 Elashgar (Ire), 4/1 Long Shot, 11/8 Battenburg Belle (Ire)
