steadied start, held up, switched left and headway over 1f out, ran on, never on terms
tracked leaders, effort over 2f out, weakened over 2f out
mid-division, weakened over 2f out
led until over 2f out, soon rallied and every chance, faded closing stages
always prominent, led over 2f out, strongly challenged from over 1f out, hard driven, all out, just held on
chased leaders, hard driven approaching final furlong, soon every chance, kept on same pace final fulrong
mid-division, headway when not clear run over 1f out, soon no impression
in touch on outside, lost place over 2f out
always behind

TAKE COVER picked-up where he left off last season with a victory on his return to action at Haydock. Three times a winner at Southwell last year, he remains unbeaten and is worth sticking with as he steps up in trip. Shifting Star has every chance in this grade and so does C&D winner Chapter And Verse after going close here last week when Rio Grande finished a couple of lengths behind. Numeral is another winner over track and trip capable of a bold bid with Ryan Moore on board while Shahzan remains unexposed and may finish closer.
