Some Detail³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: David Noonan| T: N J Hawke| OR: 113| BF

7/1

Step back in the right direction when staying-on sixth over 2½m at Warwick last month but this trip is on the sharp side for him (best efforts around 3m).

Kloud Gate^v¹²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 111| CD

9/2

Back to form with a bang in a visor (retained) when scoring comfortably over C&D 12 days ago and 7 lb rise may not stop if the headgear continues to have a positive effect.

Form: 6/8940-1

Pardon Me^h²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Harry Bannister| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 110

16/1

Cartmel winner last July. Also a good third at Sedgefield in October but not seen again until pulling up there last month. Needs to leave that run well behind.

5/2

Forecasts

Eclair Des Sablons (5/2), The Knot Is Tied (11/4), Kloud Gate (9/2), Some Detail (7/1), Passing Shadow (8/1), San Pedro De Senam (12/1), Give Us A Swig (14/1), Pardon Me (16/1)

A 7 lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent KLOUD GATE notching a second success of the month if the visor continues to have a positive effect. Eclair des Sablons is another who has reacted well to headgear (cheekpieces in his case) and he heads the dangers along with The Knot Is Tied.
