Able Kane¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Joshua Bryan| T: B R Millman| OR: 69

10/3

Soft-ground Bath novice winner last year but has failed to progress in handicaps this term. Being eased another 2lb can only help but need to see a bit more.

Forecasts

Able Kane (10/3), Napping (5/1), Ahorsecalledwanda (13/2), Soldier's Son (7/1), Madrinho (15/2), Daring Guest (17/2), Iconic Knight (9/1), Alba Del Sole (9/1), Gilt Edge (12/1), Twice As Likely (16/1), You Don't Own Me (50/1), Urban Highway (66/1)

Several with chances. DARING GUEST went close at Lingfield last time and Tom Clover's consistent 6-y-o is taken to deservedly get his head back in front again. Ahorsecalledwanda is another who has been knocking on the door and should go well, while the thriving Alba Del Sole would also enter the reckoning if turning up after Chelmsford on Thursday (she's better on turf).
