6/4

Won 7-runner handicap at Redcar (5f, good to soft, 6/4) 56 days ago. Remains fairly treated on old form and should go well again.

10/3

Latest win at Ayr in June. Creditable third of 6 in handicap at Ayr (5f, firm, 9/2) 16 days ago. Likely to be on the premises again.

Form: 082213

Montelusa^b²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Sean Kirrane⁽³⁾| T: J Coulson| OR: 63

20/1

Unreliable type. First run since leaving Tim Easterby when fifth of 6 in seller (14/1) at Thirsk (6f, good) 20 days ago. Hard to fancy on the back of a lacklustre display.

Form: 35-4225

16/5

Winner at Beverley in May. 8/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good) 20 days ago, not ideally placed from poor draw. Should bounce back and makes appeal in a weak event.

15/2

C&D winner. Twenty five runs since last win in 2021. 11/2, below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good) 8 days ago. Others make more appeal.

11/1

Forecasts

Rajmeister (6/4), Imperial Khan (16/5), Stay Smart (10/3), Hard Solution (15/2), Burtonlodge Beauty (11/1), Montelusa (20/1), Hold On Together (20/1), Quanah (20/1)

Having scored at Beverley in May, IMPERIAL KHAN was undone by the draw at Thirsk last time, so he's well worth a chance to get back on track in a thin race. Last-time-out winner Rajmeister is an obvious player and Stay Smart can't be dismissed.
