One win from 22 Flat runs. Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 7/1, fourth of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good to soft) 19 days ago, slowly away. On a dangerous mark and drops in grade, now.

Forecasts

Birkenhead (4/9), Lost My Sock (4/1), Mokaman (5/1), Cuppacoco (12/1), Ustath (12/1), Qaaraat (25/1), Orchid Rose (25/1)

BIRKENHEAD upped his game to score readily at Catterick 6 days ago and, unpenalised, he boasts obvious claims of following up against some out-of-form types. A revival from the well-treated Lost My Sock could cause the selection some issues.
