HERKEIOS (9) is building towards a maiden win after minor placings at his last two runs, the latest when third over 1600m at Great Yarmouth, beaten 2.25 lengths. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Best form puts him right in this. PARAGON (3) returns after six months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a ninth over 1400m at Doncaster. No surprise if he was able to get off the mark. BLUE TRAIN (1) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 6 lengths into seventh over 1600m at Great Yarmouth. Fitter so expect a better run this time. SKYELIGHT (2) was in contention on the turn and finished third last time over 1600m at Lingfield All Weather when resuming from a spell, beaten 1.5 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Placed to advantage so expect another bold run.
