9/2

Chased home Captain Tom Cat in a hot Aintree handicap (19.9f) before resuming winning ways over this sort of trip back there last month. 8 lb rise to overcome but could have more in the locker.

Form: 2314-21

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Adam Wedge| T: L Morgan| OR: 130

9/2

Enjoying a good spell, resuming winning ways back chasing in thin Perth handicap last month, looking held briefly late on only to pick up and lead near finish. Can't be ruled out.

Form: 244-121

William Of Orange^p,t²²

Age: 10| Weight: 11-11| J: Joe Williamson⁽⁵⁾| T: M Walford| OR: 129| C| D

12/1

Has won 3 handicap chases for this yard in 2021 and was only just denied over further in veterans' race here in May. Stiff task latest and could bounce back.

Form: 31-U12P

Mance Rayder^b³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: Danny McMenamin| T: H Hogarth| OR: 123

8/1

Durable sort who scored twice at Doncaster last term and went in again at Kelso (27.8f) in May. Has looked anchored by rise in the weights since, third to Empire De Maulde at Aintree latest.

Form: 722-153

5/4

Point/course maiden hunter chase winner for owner who made a fine start in handicaps for James Moffatt when easily landing C&D event 22 days ago under this rider. More to come up in class.

Form: 4/4P1-11

Dr Robin^b,t²⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 10-7| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 111| CD

15/2

Moody sort, but goes well here and wasn't beaten far behind William of Orange in May. Dropped away quickly at Hexham since but no surprise to see a better showing now.

Forecasts

Dressedforsuccess (5/4), Empire De Maulde (9/2), Licklighter (9/2), Dr Robin (15/2), Mance Rayder (8/1), Tico Times (10/1), William Of Orange (12/1), Looksnowtlikebrian (14/1)

DRESSEDFORSUCCESS made an impressive start in handicaps when easily landing a C&D contest 3 weeks ago and there is more to come from him. He can defy a 10 lb rise up in class. Empire de Maulde, successful at Aintree last time, is next on the shortlist. Looksnowtlikebrian could also figure on his first visit to Cartmel if keeping the mistakes down.
