Took 18 runs to open his account but has been burdened with a 9lb stiffer mark as a result. Had the run of the race that day and the same tactics were ineffective last time. Good 7lb claimer brought in to offset the weight imbalance.

4/1
Losing run now stretches back 20 races to June 2015. Continues to fall down the weights and will not be far away from finding his level. Generally needs a couple of runs each season before peaking so this could be his day.

Seven-race maiden has been well supported on last two starts. Third to his stable companion last time on his first run for five months. Still lightly raced and open to improvement.

Becoming expensive to follow nowadays. Something of a 7f specialist but possesses C&D form. Likes to be held up and she has been encountering traffic problems of late. Has dropped to 5lb below her last winning mark.

Records of 12-108 but last win came in June 2015. Produced one good run at Musselburgh last season but otherwise his form has been in steep decline.

Forecasts

Rattle On (11/10), Mister Musicmaster (4/1), Polar Kite (5/1), Zabdi (13/2), Binky Blue (8/1), Cleverconversation (8/1), Prince Of Cardamom (14/1), Cyflymder (33/1)

Verdict

Rattle On is the one to beat in this having attracted support for recent races and looking more than ready to exploit his mark when found a suitable race. Today may prove to be his day but at the forecast odds MISTER MUSICMASTER makes a lot more appeal. His losing sequence continues to grow but there were signs last time that he was coming to hand. Ron Hodges veteran has dropped 15lb since the start of last season and, as a horse that needs his first couple of runs following a break, this looks an ideal opportunity to catch him. Polar Kite looks best of the rest.
