1m2f handicap at Doncaster on reappearance produced his second 2nd on soft ground

Acts on soft; good third of nine at Newmarket (1m2f, good to soft) on reappearance
6 (5)	Dasho Lennie Bay J:Harry Davies(3) T:S Woods	J:Harry Davies(3) T:S Woods	127	—	4-12	80	96	79	28d	—	—	-5	12.7	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Ran well at 1m2f on soft last time; looks a serious contender on this handicap debut
3 (7)	Maasai Mara Bay J:Cieren Fallon T:John & Thady Gosden	J:Cieren Fallon T:John & Thady Gosden	130	b	424-12	83	96	74	26d	—	—	0	11.6	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Unraced on softer than good but this year's AW achievements demand some respect
7 (1)	Kings Code Bay J:Sam Hitchcott T:Richard Hannon	J:Sam Hitchcott T:Richard Hannon	119	—	633-	72	92	78	216d	—	—	+6	12.2	4.75/1	20 5%
Looks sure to be suited by 1m2f+ and brings potential to this handicap/seasonal debut
2 (3)	Chillhi Bay J:Ben Robinson T:Brian Ellison	J:Ben Robinson T:Brian Ellison	134	—	8159-7	87	96	69	35d	—	—	+7	10.1	8.00/1	33 3%
Perhaps needed the run five weeks ago but he also needs to prove his stamina over new trip
5 (4)	Mlle Chanel Bay J:Callum Hutchinson(3) T:Andrew Balding	J:Callum Hutchinson(3) T:Andrew Balding	129	—	16-4	82	94	60	30d	—	—	+5	9	6.75/1	28 4%
Lacks solid form credentials; stamina in family to make 1m2f interesting on handicap debut
