Celtic Tara⁵⁶³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Katie O'Farrell⁽⁵⁾| T: O Murphy| OR: 100

10/1

Signs of encouragement in bumpers/over hurdles and, while she has a long absence to overcome, there's potential for better now up in trip/switched to handicaps. Check betting.

Form: 7877/

Follow Your Fire^p²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 98| D

9/2

Winner of 2m handicap at Hexham in June and remained in form subsequently until a lesser effort at Sedgefield last time. Each-way claims.

Form: 215238

The Electrician^p¹⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Ryan Mania| T: R M Smith| OR: 96

7/2

First impact in handicaps when second of 17 at Ayr (20.5f, soft) in May. Contender if returning from a break in similar form.

Form: 20647-2

She's A Rocca¹⁹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: B S Hughes| T: N G Richards| OR: 93

11/2

Strong in market when winning Ayr bumper on debut in 2019. Last season's hurdling exploits were essentially disappointing but it's still early days and she needs a betting check on return.

Form: 8/4647P-

Scots Sonnet⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Reed| T: J S Goldie| OR: 88

17/2

Form: 84486F

Petite Rhapsody¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: D R Fox| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 83

Form: 375408

Fernhill Lad^t¹³²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: Bruce Lynn⁽⁵⁾| T: N W Alexander| OR: 83

5/1

Tongue strap on first time, did travel well when 13½ lengths fourth of 11 to Silk Or Scarlet over C&D (heavy) in May. Needs to show he can build on that now.

Form: 95889-4

Saint Jude²⁸⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Danny McMenamin| T: A Wilson| OR: 71

20/1

First piece of worthwhile form when third at Hexham in November but she has failed to back that up twice since.

Mileva Roller⁵⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: Ross Chapman| T: Miss L Harrison| OR: 68

50/1

Remains a maiden after 20 NH runs. 33/1, ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at this course (3m, good to soft) 56 days ago. 6 lb out of the handicap. Easy to look elsewhere.

Form: 53F/079

Forecasts

Silk Or Scarlet (3/1), The Electrician (7/2), Follow Your Fire (9/2), Fernhill Lad (5/1), Misscarlett (5/1), She's A Rocca (11/2), Petite Rhapsody (6/1), Scots Sonnet (17/2), Celtic Tara (10/1), Saint Jude (20/1), Mileva Roller (50/1)

SILK OR SCARLET looked a different horse in cheekpieces when scoring comfortably over C&D back in May and a 7 lb rise may not stop him if showing up from a break in similar form. The Electrician will be a threat if reproducing the level he showed when second at Ayr when last seen in the spring, while Celtic Tara has been off for a while but needs keeping an eye on in the market now handicapping.
