11/2

Good third of 14 in handicap (22/1) at this C&D 18 days ago, closing all way to line. Still winless following 12 attempts, but reproduction of that latest effort would give a him a serious chance.

Form: 048673

One Last Hug^b⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 8-7| J: Amie Waugh⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 46

50/1

Form: 092068

(5)

Orchid Rose⁶⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Crook| OR: 45

33/1

Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap (28/1) at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 65 days ago. Again looks vulnerable from a win point of view.

Form: 730954

(3)

Rhubarb^h⁷⁵

Forecasts

Mr Trevor (4/1), Champagne Supanova (5/1), Sleight (11/2), Ustath (6/1), Rhubarb (7/1), One Last Hug (8/1), The Grey Bay (9/1), Red Allure (12/1), Kolossus (20/1), Orchid Rose (33/1), Garnock Valley (50/1), Independent Beauty (66/1), Archimedes (125/1)

MR TREVOR failed to fire on his sole previous run on this surface, but that was during his 2-y-o campaign and if able to reproduce something akin to this season's turf form back on tapeta he will surely go close. Sleight posted his best effort yet when third over C&D recently and will be a threat if able to build on that, while One Last Hug and Champagne Supanova are others to consider.
