50/1

Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Alan Berry when eleventh of 12 in handicap (100/1) at this course (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Back up in trip and mark still looks harsh on his achievements so far.

Forecasts

Cobra Kai (1/1), Yeeeaah (3/1), Hegemon (7/1), Gurkhali Girl (9/1), Mollies Hope (9/1), Clapham Sect (33/1), Hollis Brown (50/1)

COBRA KAI scored at Ripon in June and ran well at Thirsk last time, so can make a winning yard debut for Keith Dalgleish. Yeeaah is also a serious player on his best form, whilst Hegemon can also be involved if able to confirm the improvement shown last time.
