THE TIMEFORM VIEW HYPE MERCHANT has already hit the frame in a few 7f handicaps and this could be a good opportunity to break his maiden, returning to his preferred trip after finding 6f too sharp at Ripon last time. Wondrous Ways’ sole victory came at this course and she’s respected in a modest contest and although Yellow Dream disappointed when well backed on handicap debut, first time headgear could now spark an improvement.

THE TIMEFORM VIEW ZEPHLYN is thriving at present, having won two of his last four starts including a course and distance victory 12 days ago. He’s proven at least as good as ever on turf and can follow up despite the rise in weights. Captain Potter, denied by just a head at Newcastle last time, is a previous course winner and rates the main danger, while Quercus Robur arrives in good heart after his Pontefract success.

THE TIMEFORM VIEW RESERVADO had some useful form as a juvenile and can make a winning start to his 3-y-o campaign at the expense of Zubaru who showed solid form on debut and could build on his recent reappearance run at Doncaster, while Farandaway should be competitive dropping back into novice company
