From a yard that are punching and wining way above their weight at the moment anything they run has to be taken seriously. Sixth of seven last day but only beaten 2½L. One for the shortlist.

Forecasts

Harbour Patrol (7/2), Jack Blane (5/1), Champion Harbour (7/1), Greengairs (8/1), Insurplus (8/1), Fortuities (9/1), Ralphy Boy (12/1), Picks Pinta (12/1), Stardrifter (16/1), Redarna (20/1), New Decade (25/1), Pipe Dreamer (40/1), Centre Haafhd (40/1)

Verdict

It could turn out that Ralphy Boy, Fortunities, Jack Blane and Centre Haafhd compete for the lead here, during the early stages of the race. Those tactics could see the race fall to the likes of Harbour Patrol, Greengairs and, the selection, CHAMPION HARBOUR, third of five in Carlisle 7f on good to firm two weeks ago.
  1. Champion Harbour
  2. Greengairs
  3. Harbour Patrol
