Was a very close second just 10 days ago and will look to go one better here today off the same mark.
That run came in a better race than this too so he's the clear fav and should be tough to beat.

Win Double - Lake Forest (3.00) & Mr Lightside (16:45) both to win
Lake Forest is a promising contender for the 3.00 at Ebor, winner of last year's Gimcrack stake, his suitability for the 7-furlong distance and along with a skilled rider in Tom Marquand puts the horse as our favourite for this race.
Mr. Lightside is a strong contender in the 16:45 at Ebor having previously won at Redcar and Nottingham and finishing third at Goodwood. He prefers to lead and is expected to perform well.

Dark Horse (14:25) - Terrorise
The upcoming race is highly competitive, with many horses having a chance to win. Despite being a longshot, Terrorise has been well-backed by connections and could benefit from the extra distance and the experienced jockey Shay Farmer, who has a perfect record at York.

This three time previous course and distance winner looks well overpriced here and despite his current form, returning to this track and trip may just spark some sort of revival.
Stepping down in Class will surely help as well as being dropped a couple lb since his last run.
Blinkers go back on but this horse in fact won when wearing them for the first time so this looks a good move.
