Will no doubt be dropped in off his wide draw here, given the likelihood of a strong pace which should suit him ideally. He raced like he needed the run on his reappearance, but given the form his yard has been in this spring it is highly likely he will progress from that run.
He has looked a very progressive horse for most of his career without managing to get too many miles on the clock, but two excellent efforts in good races at Beverley last year suggest he could still have improvement in him as a four-year-old. He got bogged down in very soft conditions on his final start but the ground has turned in the last week and should be ideal. First-time cheekpieces can't be a negative.
Owen Lewis is a young jockey who has been taking the eye recently and is certainly being given winning opportunities by his boss Roger Teal. In this hands and heels event, the jockey's 5lb claim certainly represents value against some less-experienced riders.
Lightning Attack has been the beaten favourite in tricky handicaps the last twice but has performed with great credit on both occasions and conditions look ideal here. Pace looks guaranteed and with the Teal team running well now, a winner is overdue after several good placed efforts from the yard's recent runners.
A lightly-raced four-year-old maiden might not be at the top of the shortlist for many, but Hughie Morrison is a patient handler and must have been very pleased with this horse's very good run last time out.
He ran a half-length length second to the well-handicapped and progressive Paxos over this course and distance and a 3lb rise is the least connections could have expected, especially as he was hampered at the start. He is in the same grade of handicap here but it is difficult to find a rival who has the potential of the one that beat him last time and William Buick is surely a significant booking. If he is now physically robust enough to stand his racing, a good summer looks assured.
