Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 75

3/1

Backward step when last of 7 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good to soft) 55 days ago, having run of race from the front but he carried his head awkwardly. No surprise headgear is on.

12/1

La Feile²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 68| D

6/1

Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 3/1) 26 days ago. 3 lb rise won't prevent a bold follow-up bid.

Form: 0-55541

Cobra Kai⁸^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Billy Garritty| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 58| D

5/2

First run since leaving Ben Haslam and landed a punt in 7-runner handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good) 8 days ago, well on top finish. Carries penalty but likely there's more to come.

Forecasts

Cobra Kai (5/2), The Cookstown Cafu (3/1), Burning Emotion (4/1), La Feile (6/1), Ey Up Its The Boss (15/2), Raydoun (12/1), Sweet Mist (18/1)

COBRA KAI landed a gamble in some style making his debut for Keith Dalgleish and on that evidence there's every chance he will shrug off a penalty. Ey Up Its The Boss and La Feile can offer most resistance.
