Plenty in with a chance but it could pay to stick with the progressive SHOOTING LINE. Placed at this track last year, he made a winning reappearance at Windsor in June with a subsequent winner back in third, and looks capable of following up on his handicap debut. Wiqaaya and Muntasib have claims on their placed form in the summer, while Lingfield maiden winner Social Forum is worth noting on his first start for David Elsworth. If You Whisper hasn't raced since January and Little Black Book has a wide draw to overcome.
