Finished ninth of 12 at Kenilworth 49 days ago; recent form hardly the most inspiring and a while since he's been in the winners' enclosure (last win in 2024); meeting some horses in good form and not easy to fancy.

Missed the frame (beaten 9l into eighth) over 7f at Kenilworth (Class 5) six weeks ago; a winner over C&D; been generally quiet since successful in a maiden at Durbanville in September; a few rivals look in good form so hard enough to fancy.

Verdict

AVIGNON gets the vote. He is a multiple winner over this distance and can confirm superiority with Prince Of Tibet, Ozark and Commanding who were behind him when last seen. October Fest should be on the shortlist.
