Decontracte¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: S A Gray| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 52

40/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Blinkered for 1st time, hinted at ability when seventh of 9 in maiden at Redcar (7f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Entitled to hold more chance now handicapping and interesting if market vibes are positive.

9/1

Blinkered for 1st time, bit below form fifth of 12 in handicap (11/2) at this course (6f) 16 days ago, staying on final 1f but never nearer. Needs to build on that now.

EMERALD LADY confirmed the promise of her penultimate run at Thirsk when running out a convincing winner of a Ffos Las handicap 9 days ago, well served by the step up to 7f. Wisely turned out under a penalty, she gets the nod to follow up, with Crocodile Power and Mr Trevor a couple of others fancied to be in the shake up.
