Has won two of these events recently at Redcar over this trip and then here over 5f. Beaten just a nose off a mark of 69 in a 5f Pontefract handicap last time and not difficult to see him winning again.

9/2
Has been unable to win away from Southwell, where he has claimed all three career successes, the last in a claimer over a year ago. Best recent effort was also at that venue in March. Has run well here before today, but best on good or slower and has never been unable to produce the goods on the forecast fast ground.

Goes into this 5lb better off with Noah Amor for a 2½L defeat by that rival here last time. Won a fast ground Beverley seller over 5f last year and steps up to this trip for the first time. Dam is half-sister to a Group-placed 6f runner, so should be ok and likely to go close.

9/1
Placed five times from 14 attempts but remains a maiden. Held from this mark in a handicap last time out over C&D and unlikely to break her duck given the way that this race is framed.

5/1
Runner-up in three maidens over 5f-6f but unable to make an impression in handicaps from marks in the 60s. Drops in grade for this and should be able to finish closer, although he still has it to prove on fast ground.

Failed to get involved in maidens and a claimer for Mick Easterby two years ago and returned after well over a year off with current trainer in February. Again didn't show in two quick outings over 1m and 7f and on that evidence she should be outclassed even in this field.

Forecasts

Noah Amor (1/1), Monsieur Jimmy (9/2), Silver Bid (5/1), Roaring Rory (11/2), Hadley (9/1), Raise The Game (14/1), Ivy Matilda (250/1)

Verdict

NOAH AMOR has been going well in these events and looks the most likely winner again, while Roaring Rory is entitled to get a fair bit closer to him that he did here last time and if he did reverse the form it would be no great surprise. Silver Bid and Raise The Game should also be capable of some involvement in the closing stages.
  1. Noah Amor
  2. Roaring Rory
  3. Raise The Game
