Fair opportunity but it's a tough race to call
He obviously didn't run up to his best at Sandown last time, and you'd be inclined to say he didn't quite get home over 2m there, so the drop back down in trip and grade will suit.
I was pretty encouraged by his return at Chester and this looks a fair opportunity for him. However, there is little between these at their best, so it's a tough race to call.
Draw could be an issue but he is a progressive colt
He looks a good ride to have picked up. He is clearly a progressive colt and you had to be impressed by the manner in which he finished off his race when winning at Newmarket last time. He is 6lb higher here in a deeper handicap but he is going the right way. Being drawn 19 of 19 could have its issues but let's see.
