Shown recent signs of improvement; creditable effort to finish runner-up here over 5f (maiden plate) in August; one to consider from an inside gate which could lead to a ground-saving trip and lots of promise in his latest performance.

Verdict

This looks a tight contest on the figures but this is a suitable opportunity for GRAND ALLEGRO. He is expected to confirm placings after he got the better of Diablo and Real Stunner when last seen. Tripping Thunder is one of the more interesting newcomers, Master Bomber made an encouraging debut, and Rafa Bay is an interesting contender from the ideal draw.
