2:25 Newbury Tips

The lightly raced 4yo has shown consistant good form. Two runs this year and his fitness should be spot on now. He went close on his return and three weeks ago he wasn't beaten far in a £77K 20 runner handicap, which was his AW debut. He was a close second on his final start last year in a £52K turf handicap and that form is looking very strong now. He looks to be well treated at the weights in this £30K handicap.

Almuhit won this race last year and is rated a pound lower this time, he was beaten over course and distance by Baileys Khelstar last time after making the running but is now seven pounds better off at the weights.

Duraji put in a strong effort on first run for yard of Richard Hughes since leaving Dermot Weld when 1 length third in the Chester Cup. Not seen to best effect at Royal Ascot last time and may be more suited by the step back up in trip.
