Iconic Figure ran well when runner-up at Southwell two days ago and  looks worth siding with to go one better and finally open his account in the 4.05 there today.

The gelding is yet to get his head in front in 21 starts but shaped really well on debut for trainer Phil Kirby when beaten 2 lengths by Poppy May.

He travelled ominously well and looked all over the winner turning for home before sticking to the tasl well from the furlong marker.

Iconic Figure pulled 2 1/2 lenbths clear from the third home and it was an effort which suggsted he had a race of thsi natiure in him for his new handler.

He also ran from 1lb out of the handicap that day and is now able ro race off his correct rating of 45.

Given that he has twice finished third maidens here in the past, once off on official rating of 74, and went on run well on handicap debut at Chepstow off 65 when third before being beaten a neck into second off 63 at Thirsk. it makes him look well-treated if building on his latest effort.

Daily Sport recommended bet: 2pts win Iconic Figure (7/2 generally available – use BOG firms)
