15/8

17/2

4 wins from 11 runs this year. First run since leaving Tony Carroll when ninth of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago so he needs to get back on track.

10/1

Latest win at Ripon in May. Not seen to best effect when fifth of 7 in handicap (14/1) at Pontefract (5f, good) 29 days ago. One to consider off 2 lb lower mark now.

Han Solo Berger¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 8-11| J: Cieren Fallon| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 72| D

Forecasts

Tees Spirit (15/8), Rum Cocktail (10/3), Lullaby Bay (4/1), Texas Man (13/2), Object (15/2), Resilience (17/2), James Watt (10/1), Han Solo Berger (12/1)

A tightly-knit sprint in which top-weight TEES SPIRIT is taken to bag win number four of 2022 given he can race off the same mark as when a very good third at Newmarket last month. James Watt didn't enjoy the best of runs when fifth at Pontefract but is expected to shine here, with both Han Solo Berger and Rum Cocktail in the mix too.
