7/2
Largely consistent performer at up to 1m6f who ran well over a similar trip to today's at Chester last week (good to soft) and was beaten just 1½L. Up another 1lb for that, but should be very competitive.

3/1
Yet to win away from Dundalk or beyond 1m2½f. Stays 1m5f and was runner-up over that trip at Leopardstown in May (good to firm) when sporting first-time blinkers. Cheekpieces back on today and if they prove to be effective then he should not be far away.

9/4
Has won twice from four races so far this term, both at around this trip. The latest of those was on soft ground at Haydock, but he was beaten under a penalty at Newbury last time, so a further 5lb rise is going to make this very tough. Any rain would be a bonus.

Age: 3|  Weight: 8-13| J: T Hamilton| T: R A Fahey| OR:  77
7/2
Has run to a similar level of form on both starts so far and that was good enough to win the second one at Redcar (1m2f, good) last time. Steps up in trip for this handicap debut from a stiff enough mark, but is unexposed and cannot be ruled out.

8/1
Came good at the ninth attempt at Pontefract (1m4f, good) last time, when he has a bit in hand. Has gone up 7lb for that, which is a tough ask, but he may now be able to kick-on and improve further.

Forecasts

Brimham Rocks (9/4), Ligeti (3/1), Kajaki (7/2), Northwest Frontier (7/2), Indy (5/1), Breakwater Bay (8/1), Frankster (33/1)

Verdict

Indy must surely be capable of winning one of these, but it is clearly risking your money on him and preference is for BREAKWATER BAY. He struck at Pontefract last time and while his rise in the weights will demand more in this grade, he may be capable of making a stride or two forward now. Northwest Frontier in unexposed and a potential danger on his handicap debut, while Kajaki and Ligeti are others who should be very competitive.
