Vantheman
None too consistent but he had an excuse on his penultimate start and surged back to form to win at Hamilton (5f, good; made all) last Sunday; that was only his second go in blinkers and he's again of interest under a 5lb penalty.

From the connections
“If Vantheman wasn't a bit lively beforehand, I'd have been worried ? he's always like that. He's been going well at home, but has just been unfortunate. Last time the blind got stuck in the blinkers, so this was essentially the first time he properly raced in them. He's done it well - Tom Eaves, jockey, speaking to ITV Racing.”
“Vantheman is a good horse. It was his first run for a while and he did have a blow so he should come on a lot for that. He is a big boy who is probably better with a lead for a bit longer but he showed a great attitude - Shane Gray, jockey, speaking to Sky Sports Racing.”
