Latest win at Carlisle in July. 11/1, first run since leaving Rebecca Menzies when creditable second of 11 in handicap at this course (6f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Leading claims.

Form: 445812

(4)

Impressor⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: S A Gray| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 60| C

Cowboy Soldier^t⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: T Eaves| T: C J Teague| OR: 60| D

40/1

Tongue strap on first time, first run since leaving Grant Tuer when ninth of 11 in handicap (66/1) at this course (6f, good to soft) 7 days ago, never in contention after missing the break. Not hard to look elsewhere.

Form: 60-8539

(1)

Eternal Halo¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 59| D

11/2

Has come down a long way in the weights without showing much but this is a drop in grade having contested Class 4 handicaps on her last 4 outings. One to keep an eye on in the market.

Form: 0-77800

Earn Your Stripes^p⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: P Mathers| T: R M Smith| OR: 54| C| D

11/4

Won at Hamilton and in June and added to tally over 6f here last month. Not at best when sixth of 11 here last week but could easily bounce back.

Form: 401216

(3)

Star Citizen^h1⁶⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 8-9| J: Cam Hardie| T: F Watson| OR: 45| CD

66/1

C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2020. 33/1, last of 8 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good to firm) on reappearance 68 days ago. Hooded for first time.

Form: 86495-8

(7)

Kaze Wo Atsumete³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 46

33/1

Down the field in 3 qualifying runs but starts out in handicaps off a basement mark and is worth a precautionary betting check.

Form: 550

Forecasts

Water Of Leith (1/1), Earn Your Stripes (11/4), Eternal Halo (11/2), Impressor (6/1), Kaze Wo Atsumete (33/1), Cowboy Soldier (40/1), Star Citizen (66/1)

WATER OF LEITH made a solid start back with Jim Goldie when second over 6f here last month and this looks an ideal opportunity for him to go one better. Earn Your Stripes could be the one to follow him home unless the betting vibes are strong with the class-dropping Eternal Halo.
