5/1

Twice-raced colt on the AW, both over 6f, showing improved form on second start a week ago. Drops to the minimum for turf bow but will have to improve to trouble the likely principles.

Promising debut when finishing runner-up over 5f on good ground at Hamilton in June, filly was tailed off over 6f in a maiden at that track in August on sole outing since. May prove better than that, market can guide today.

Forecasts

Marnie James (8/11), Time Trail (3/1), Royal Pursuit (9/2), Ace Of Spades (5/1), Eva Docc (10/1)

MARNIE JAMES improved to when winning at York in July and will find this assignment much easier than the hot 6f contest he was last spotted in on the Knavesmire in August. He can resume winning ways now dropped in trip/class. Time Trail won her first two starts before also struggling in deep water in Newbury's Super Sprint, back to form at Nottingham last time, she looks the main danger ahead of Royal Pursuit, a potential improver after a satisfactory AW debut at Newcastle.
