TIMEFORM VIEW Finally got the job done when opening his account on return at Chepstow (3m, good to soft) in

Has failed to match that in 2 subsequent appearances, though, and there’s an air of vulnerability about him.

TIMEFORM VIEW Back to winning ways when taking 8-runner handicap chase at Huntingdon (23.6f, good to soft) on penultimate start. However, he folded pretty tamely at Doncaster next time and is hard to warm to on the back of that.

BEYOND REDEMPTION appeared to have plenty left in the tank when making a winning start for this yard over C&D last month and he looks capable of defying an 11lb rise in the weights. The one for the forecast could be My Silver Lining, who shapes as though this stiffer test will be in her favour Ballinslea Bridge is best of the rest
