1/2

Needed the drop into selling company to get off the mark over 2m3f at Stratford on good ground on latest. Now hooded as he goes up in trip but is at least in form and shapes as though he may well stay this trip.

Form: 9-63521

Racing Spirit^b,t²³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Lee Edwards| T: Dave Roberts| OR: 78

24 race maiden who ran a bit better on penultimate start but even that needs improving on and previous efforts on soft ground have been very moderate.

Only piece of form was when third to a long odds on shot at Newton Abbot in July but likely was flattered by that and has ran poorly since.

Form: 00-0360

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Dave Crosse| T: O Murphy| OR: 94

10/1

Won a Bumper on debut in summer of 2018 on debut but hurdling career has been disappointing and first time blinkers tried latest are retained but yet to race on softer than good and stamina not assured.

Form: 13-39P4

Forecasts

Ballyellis (1/2), Vancouver (4/1), Racing Spirit (7/1), Dorette (10/1), Trogir (40/1)

A poor contest even by selling standards and providing he stays this longer trip BALLYELLIS can follow up his Stratford win recently. Vancouver has had lots of chances since taking one of these at Taunton but he still may get the better of Dorette for minor honours.
