1/6
Unbeaten in bumpers and Point-to-Points but remains a maiden after four attempts over hurdles. However, he has appeared well suited by stepping up in trip lately and went close when beaten 1¼L by Potters Approach at Stratford last month (3m2f good), with this race representing the ideal opportunity to get off the mark over timber.

9/2
Seven race hurdles maiden, and in truth little promise in the majority of those races. Well beaten on his latest outing at Stratford, and pulled up at Southwell previously, so it's hard to see him troubling his sole rival tonight.

Forecasts

Monsieur Arkadin (1/6), Oriental Fixer (9/2)

Verdict

With the chase course unfit for racing due to problems with the watering system, a revised card at Carlisle gets underway with a match, and MONSIEUR ARKADIN should have few problems in recording a first success over hurdles at the fifth attempt.
  1. Monsieur Arkadin
  2. Oriental Fixer
