Hasn't shown much to date but is from a prolific family so progress can't be ruled out now pitched into a low-grade affair.

Down the field in novices/handicap. Tongue tie and step up in trip needs to bring about improvement.

Beaten a long way on all 5 starts for Iain Jardine. Still relatively early days but a step up in trip/first-time hood needs to spark improvement.

9/2
Fared better dropped to this level when third in 1m event at Lingfield in July. Failed to improve over 2f longer trip in similar event there last time but worth another chance in refitted cheekpieces.

Forecasts

Chinese Spirit (9/4), Kodiac Lass (10/3), Total Distraction (9/2), High Fort (5/1), The Mackem Torpedo (11/2), Colour Contrast (8/1), Along Comes Mary (12/1), Wildmountainthyme (14/1), Jorgie (22/1), Ingleby Exile (33/1), Franbella (50/1)

Verdict

THE MACKEM TORPEDO hasn't shown much to this point but he's from a prolific family so improvement could be forthcoming now pitched into a low-grade affair. Kodiac Lass and High Fort, who was unlucky not to finish closer at Ayr on Monday, are others with claims.

  1. THE MACKEM TORPEDO
  2. KODIAC LASS (IRE)
  3. HIGH FORT (IRE)
