Had three of these rivals behind him when close runner-up two months ago; unexposed in handicaps with this his second start in this company; warrants respect.

Creditable effort when 33-1 third over 5f here (handicap, split Swiss Walt and Purple Operator) over Christmas; no surprise to see him go well if confirming promise shown last time and he's won off this mark in the last 12 months.

Record over this course and distance is three wins from 25 runs; came up short when favourite and beaten 4½l four weeks ago; could be hard to beat from this advantageous starting berth and he's won off this mark in the last 12 months.

Defied a big price (33-1) over 6½f here (handicap) 53 days ago; slightly higher rating to contend with; easy to oppose as facing a tougher assignment this time.

Creditable effort to finish fifth, beaten 2½l three weeks ago; not really built on success in a stakes race in August at Fairview; a lot on his plate here and has questions to answer.

Had a couple of these behind him when runner-up here over 5f (handicap) over Christmas; doesn't win often; if he is able to build on his most recent effort then has to be considered.

Verdict

WHATEVER NEXT is hard to look beyond. He is on an attractive mark and appeals from an attractive draw. Swiss Walt has run well previously over this C&D.
