Caballero¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 65| BF

9/4

Thirteen runs since last win in 2018. 15/8, creditable third of 7 in handicap at this course (7.2f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Likely to give it another good go.

Tommy G²²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Russell⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 65| C| D

11/2

Five-time course winner. Improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner handicap at this course (7.2f, good, 11/2) 22 days ago by ½ length from Caballero. Merits consideration up 3 lb.

Form: 9-73031

Lofty¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: K Stott| T: T D Barron| OR: 60

13/2

Ungenuine type. Respectable sixth of 12 in handicap (15/2) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 15 days ago, not ideally placed. Others more persuasive.

Form: 076-886

Van Dijk⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 57| CD

12/1

Forecasts

Caballero (9/4), Coviglia (7/2), Corndavon Lad (4/1), Tommy G (11/2), Lofty (13/2), Van Dijk (12/1), Tamkeen (18/1), Lucky Violet (50/1)

CORNDAVON LAD has got right back on track over this C&D with headgear discarded of late, winning last month prior to an excellent second 3 weeks ago. He's expected to make another very bold bid, with Caballero, Tommy G and Coviglia closely matched on a 7f clash here recently.
