Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Cam Hardie| T: H Bethell| OR: 66| BF| D

3/1

Capitalised on lower turf mark to score twice at up to 10f last summer. Essentially held his form well on AW during back end of last year and returns to action with his yard amongst the winners. Could be the way to go.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: F Norton| T: D Thompson| OR: 62| CD

3/1

Got right back on track with success in 7-runner handicap over C&D in March. Below that level at Redcar since but could well bounce back here.

Won twice from 4 runs this year, latest over C&D in January. Ran right up to best when second of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton later that month and holds strong claims.

Forecasts

Calcutta Dream (9/4), Bearwith (3/1), Cusack (3/1), Dougies Dream (9/2), Gonnetot (11/1), Hot Team (22/1)

This can go to BEARWITH, who wasn't seen to best effect here in November and returns on a workable mark. Calcutta Dream rates the chief threat.
