Lough Leane⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: H Crouch| T: D M Simcock| OR: 58

11/10

Shaped well when third on reappearance at Yarmouth in June. Just a respectable third of 7 in handicap at Ripon (12f, good to firm) 44 days ago but it's still early days and he ought to be a big factor.

Form: 800-33

16/1

11/2

Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, ninth of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f). Off 8 months (gelded). Up in trip now handicapping for top yard and there should be more to come.

Forecasts

Lough Leane (11/10), Major Major (10/3), Club Manager (11/2), Natacata (13/2), Eight Fifteen (16/1), Surge (16/1), Sexy Rexy (50/1)

LOUGH LEANE was a shade disappointing at Ripon but he's very interesting on his reappearance third at Yarmouth so he's well worth another chance. Major Major should have more to offer and is a threat, along with Club Manager on handicap debut/return.
