Finished behind Follow Your Heart over 5f at Kenilworth (Class 4) when last of nine in March; quite a while since he tasted success and all his winning form has come at Greyville (two successes); returns from an absence here; others more persuasive.

Came home eighth, beaten 12l, in a Grade 3 two months ago upped to 7½f; managed two wins in his last six outings; he shouldn't be far away if replicating his best form and dropping in class.

T: A N Marcus
Likes this combination of C&D; turned in a solid effort in defeat 35 days ago, when third; closely matched with Follow Your Heart on that running; plenty of appeal given several of his rivals have questions to answer.

Verdict

Catwalk King looks the next best while Ireland Forever is respected. But BEHAVE HARRIS is a strong pick. He is bidding to land a second win over this C&D and is taken to confirm the placings after finishing ahead of Follow Your Heart latest.
