Winless in recent starts but shaped with plenty of promise before flopping over a sharp trip last time; back up in distance today suits ideally, acts on this going, and first-time headgear could sharpen focus — though the trainer's current form gives pause.

Bahadur (SR 86, 9-5) posts the joint-highest SR in the field alongside Tim Toe and carries a workable weight for a horse of his ability. His form string 11-651 shows two wins earlier in the sequence and a recent return to winning at the right end — the '1' at the right of his form line confirms he arrived here in winning form. S Woods is a trainer who targets these big-field staying handicaps with purpose, and a 4-year-old at this trip on Good to Firm has natural scope for further improvement. At 9-5 he has a 2lb pull over Glenroyal (SR 85, 9-4) and a clear SR edge over the majority of the field.
Each-way alternative: Glenroyal.
Main danger: Tim Toe — Tim Toe (SR 86, 9-3) shares the joint-top SR in the field, carries 2lb less than Bahadur, and his compressed form string 131 — three runs, two wins and a third — suggests a horse arriving on a sharply progressive curve trained by the in-form Henry De Bromhead.
