18/1
50/1, shaped as if better for the run after 6 months off when eighth of 12 in handicap at Catterick (6f, soft) 22 days ago. Dropped a further 3 lb but others seemingly have more pressing claims.

10/3
Creditable second of 10 in handicap (17/2) at Ripon (6f, heavy) 14 days ago, shade unfortunate to bump in to an improver but seeing off the rest readily enough. Expected to go well.

Last of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 66/1) 26 days ago. Back down in trip. Inconsistent and with little solid form, it's easy to look elsewhere.

Forecasts

Cobra Kai (3/1), Moon Bay (10/3), The Grey Wolf (7/2), Barbara's Incharge (9/2), Rum Going On (8/1), The Gay Blade (14/1), Act Of Passion (18/1), Laoch Gach La (25/1)

Verdict

COBRA KAI took a small step forward on reappearance/all-weather debut at Newcastle last month and, with this race unlikely to take much winning, Ben Haslem's charge rates as the most solid option. Moon Bay was unlucky to bump into an improver at Ripon a fortnight ago so he's expected to give the selection most to think about, with Rum Going On completing the shortlist.

  1. Cobra Kai3/1
  2. Moon Bay10/3
  3. Rum Going On8/1
