Age: 6| Weight: 9-13| J: Callum Rodriguez⁽³⁾| T: M Dods| OR: 76| D

8/1

Impressive winner over an extended 1m at Haydock (soft) on seasonal debut recently. Has to defy an 8lb rise for that success and regular apprentice jockey takes the ride once more.

Dual winner over C&D here on soft ground last year and ran well to finish runner-up to Mustaqbal at Haydock (1m, soft) on seasonal debut last weekend. Work to do if he's to reverse that form however.

Forecasts

Jacob Black (15/8), Fleetfoot Jack (5/2), Maifalki (6/1), Mustaqbal (8/1), Amy Blair (14/1), Cliff Bay (16/1), Brother McGonagall (16/1), Natajack (20/1), Reinforced (20/1), Pullman Brown (25/1), What Wonders Weave (28/1), Haymarket (40/1), Teomaria (50/1)

The penalised JACOB BLACK can follow up Thursday's Musselburgh win by taking this competitive looking handicap contest. The selection was making his debut for this stable on that occasion and he can take this with stablemate Cliff Bay, who has run well first time out in the past capable of finishing runner-up. Mustaqbal like the selection has won already this season and he can finish third off his revised mark.
