3/1

8/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Ayr (7f, good to firm) 13 days ago by 4½ lengths from Judgment Call. Raised 7 lb and this place often doesn't suit his usual hold-up tactics.

Forecasts

Love De Vega (5/2), Judgment Call (5/2), Abduction (3/1), On A Session (11/2), Manigordo (9/1)

LOVE DE VEGA won over 6f at Hamilton last time but he's equally as effective at 7f and can strike again under Ben Curtis. On A Session returns to the scene of his win in April and might give the selection most to do ahead of Judgment Call.
