Beau Haze won at Hereford in March but usually plies his trade at a lower level. You Name Him should find a race if getting back to last year’s best form while Courtland got off the mark on soft going when making his handicap debut at Uttoxeter in December. Major Robinson was a fair second at Wetherby last month but didn’t get far at Kempton last week. Considering he was badly hampered as the tapes went up at Fontwell six weeks ago, BEMBRIDGE (NAP) ran an excellent race to be beaten only a couple of lengths at the finish. He has bags of scope and makes his handicap debut on a lenient-looking mark. Balkardy couldn’t extend his sequence of placed efforts at Ascot in March but that was a very strong contest and he should find these rivals more to his liking.
