East Street Revue^p¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 70| D

13/8

Capitalised on a reduced mark to open his account for the season at Haydock last month, having a bit more in hand than the head winning margin suggests (idled in front). Leading player up 3 lb.

Form: 083541

Runninwild^h1¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: D Allan| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 72

14/1

Redcar winner in May but has made little impact in both subsequent starts, including on handicap bow last time (unseated rider before start). Hood now applied but easy to look elsewhere.

Form: 06176

Canford Bay^t¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 68| D

11/4

Seventeen runs since last win in 2020. Respectable efforts on turf last couple of starts but others make more appeal for win purposes.

Form: 356644

Van Gerwen¹⁰^{(ex 4)}

Age: 8| Weight: 9-2| J: G Lee| T: P T Midgley| OR: 63| CD

15/8

3-time C&D winner who scored at Ripon in May and produced his best effort since 2018 when bolting up over this C&D 10 days ago. Not sure to be in the same form but has to be feared under a penalty.

Forecasts

East Street Revue (13/8), Van Gerwen (15/8), Canford Bay (11/4), Buniann (10/3), Stay Smart (7/1), Young Tiger (12/1), Runninwild (14/1)

VAN GERWEN has an all-or-nothing profile, but his demolition job here10 days ago was his best effort since 2018 so Paul Midgley's charge gets the vote to notch a fourth C&D success. The obvious threat is East Street Revue, who capitalised on a reduced mark when scoring at Haydock last month, with the selection's stablemate Buniann next on the list.
