Trinity Lake^t⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Zak Wheatley⁽⁷⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 74| D

3/1

Seventeen runs since last win in 2019. 7/1, creditable third of 13 in handicap over this C&D (good) 9 days ago. Can carry head awkwardly under pressure but should be in the shake-up again.

Form: 282663

The Weed Machine¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Connor Beasley| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 69

14/1

Off 20 months, too free when sixth of 7 in handicap at Musselburgh (7f, good) 19 days ago. Interesting that top yard has persevered and could be a different proposition with that outing behind him.

Form: 873/3-6

Brazen Bolt¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 67| D

Arrives on the back of a pair of wins on AW at Newcastle and should be thereabouts on hat-trick bid if showing himself to be as effective on turf.

Forecasts

Trinity Lake (3/1), Brazen Bolt (4/1), Marvel (13/2), Stone Circle (17/2), Proud Archi (9/1), Singe Anglais (11/1), The Weed Machine (14/1), Swiss Knight (18/1), Foreseeable Future (20/1), Willie John (20/1), Hot Summer (25/1), Our Little Pony (40/1)

A chance is taken on THE WEED MACHINE in the hope that a recent comeback outing has knocked the freshness out of him. The fact that a top stable has stuck with him after such a long absence suggests that he could be better than he's shown and he's preferred to Trinity Lake, who doesn't always look the most willing but is pretty reliable, and Singe Anglais.
