Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 79

4/9

Overcame inexperience (very slowly away) to make a winning debut at Catterick (7f) in July and ran to a similar level 9 weeks later when third at Pontefract 8 days ago, faring better than the result (poorly drawn and hampered twice early). Major claims.

Forecasts

Wan'em (4/9), Bulldog Spirit (3/1), Timewave (11/1), Duke Of Wybourne (20/1)

WAN'EM's third at Pontefract 8 days ago is worth marking up a touch (poorly drawn and hampered twice early) so this represents a good opportunity for Karl Burke's charge to take his record to 2-3. Newcomer Bulldog Spirit shades the vote for the forecast spot over the once-raced Duke of Wybourne.
