11/4
Ran a stormer here to be second over C&D in December and off the same mark now, though has been disappointing in three runs elsewhere since then.

Racked up a quick-fire treble in the summer of 2015, though has rather lost her way since. First outing since switching to this trainer. Still looks held by the handicapper.

Age: 8|  Weight: 11-6| J: Theo Gillard(7)| T: D McCain Jnr| OR:  118
9/2
Took advantage of sliding mark last time out to score at Sedgefield. No certainty to turn up here in the same mood and has shot up 8lb for the win.

Horse silk
Maxie Tp35
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-5| J: Joe Colliver| T: Micky Hammond| OR:  117
6/1
Is on a workable mark again but has yet to give off any great signals that a big run is forthcoming, not one for maximum trust and ran poorly last time out.

Rev Up Ruby22
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-3| J: Jonathon Bewley(5)| T: G Bewley| OR:  115
16/1
Scored over hurdles at Musselburgh in November though hasn't been anything like as convincing in two starts back there over fences since the turn of the year.

Midnight Request30
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-3| J: Mr Robert Hawker(7)| T: N J Hawke| OR:  115
3/1
Is now rated 15lb higher than when scoring C&D success in February but had little trouble last time out at Towcester having been raised 9lb and nothing to suggest this latest hike will halt him.

Horse silk
Pistol37
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-3| J: Mr John Dixon(7)| T: J E Dixon| OR:  115

Wasn't keen to race here last month and didn't really consent fully once the action began either, gets 5lb back but looks best watched for now.

Made no mistake back over timber at Kelso 12 days ago, raised 6lb for that win and looks entirely fair, should go close again.

Forecasts

Very First Time (11/4), Midnight Request (3/1), Total Assets (4/1), Askamore Darsi (9/2), Maxie T (6/1), Fresh By Nature (6/1), Rev Up Ruby (16/1), Pistol (25/1), Minnie Milan (25/1)

16:00 Carlisle - 15 April 2017 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Four last time out winners amongst the field of nine assembled here and perhaps TOTAL ASSETS makes most appeal of the quartet. He took the return to hurdling in his stride at Kelso recently and should be able to cope with the demands of a 6lb hike no problem now. Midnight Request is feared most having won easily over C&D last month and then followed up carry an extra 9lb at Towcester. He should go well despite his latest hike. Askamore Darsi and Fresh By Nature also obliged recently at Sedgefield and Uttoxeter respectively but neither is reliable in terms on consistency. Very First Time ran well here in December and can be given a chance off the same mark now, despite some poor runs since.
