Major Conquest drops back to sprinting in the 3.15 at Yarmouth and looks worth chancing at 20/1.
John Hills' gelding shaped as if a return to 6f would suit when fading late on over 7f at Epsom last time out having been in front a furlong from home.
Prior to that hid form had been a mixed bag, but he did run well when third to the progressive Emilo Largo over 7f at Sandown three outings ago and prior to that had chased home Bertiwhittle over 7f at Chester.
Those two runs suggested he was on his way back having lost his way since showing progressive form as a juvenile.
He ran well on his debut at two to be fifth of 12 to Strong Suit at Newbury before going on to score at Salisbury and Ascot.
The form of those races looks strong in the context of this race, and he is only 1lb lower than his Ascot success where he scored with more in hand than the winning margin of a neck suggests.
He is certainly well treated enough to go very close if the drop down in trip works, and also has a good draw in stall in 14 from where he should be able to get a good early pitch.
Too me he is too well treated to ignore at the 20s on offer and has to be an each-way play at those odds.
Recommended bet: 2pts each-way Major Conquest (20/1 enerally available - BOG firms)
