Knows how to win here; not beaten that far in fifth (4½l) over 6f here (stakes race) last month; may be involved if able to find the same level as his last victory and he's well drawn.

Not far behind Golden Pavilion when sixth over 6f here (stakes race) last month; unbeaten over this C&D after two runs; handy stall number so has to be respected.

A while since he's been in the winners' enclosure (last win last March) and form has been a bit up and down of late; behind Guy Gibson here in a handicap beaten 3½l two weeks ago; facing a testing assignment and others more appealing.

Verdict
The well drawn Tripping Thunder is a potential player while Tripping Thunder, Mercantour and Golden Pavilion are C&D winners. But FAIRY KNIGHT looks set for a big run. He has been a winner twice over this C&D and can reverse last time's placings with Anuschka's World.
