6/1, below form fourth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good) 27 days ago. Not without an each-way chance, but one or two of these are more appealing for win purposes.

Latest win at Ayr in August. Fifth of 8 in handicap (11/2) at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) 22 days ago, not ideally placed. Merits consideration.

17/2
16/1 and hooded for 1st time, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 30 days ago, doing too much too soon. Place possibilities with the hood retained and off the same mark at a course where his strike rate is 2-5.

Twenty runs since last win in 2023. Sixth of 13 in handicap (14/1) at Ripon (5f, good) 24 days ago, never nearer. Mark for this AW debut is an attractive one, but he's opposable nonetheless.

9/1
Latest win at Beverley in August. Bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (11/2) 12 days ago. Definite chance if seeing this out better this time, but the available evidence suggests that he's more effective on turf.

19:30 Newcastle - 21 October 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

A chance is taken on RAMBUSO CREEK, who is on a very good mark based on much of his form when in the care of Kevin Ryan and left previous efforts for this yard behind when an encouraging fourth at Southwell last time. Harb looks dangerous, along with dual C&D winner Blue Force and Herakles. If Rock of England were to reproduce something akin to his best turf form he would have a serious chance, but he has so far failed to deliver in four runs on the all-weather.
