Untrustworthy individual. Twenty two runs since last win in 2020. 18/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 42 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Plenty to find on form.

11/2

Course winner. 3 wins from 9 runs this year. Didn't need to improve to win 11-runner handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 9/2) 10 days ago, just holding on. Should go well again.

12/1

Bit below form fifth of 11 in handicap (9/1) at this course (7.1f) 24 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Visor back on. Return to this trip should suit, so can't be discounted.

4/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in May. Eighth of 11 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good, 7/1) 18 days ago. Return to this track should suit but he's a tricky customer.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: T Eaves| T: R Craggs| OR: 64| D

17/2

Winner at Redcar in June. 9/2, first run since leaving Les Eyre when creditable ½-length third of 10 to Sandret in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago. One to note.

12/1

Visored for 1st time, ninth of 13 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, soft, 9/1) 17 days ago, left poorly placed. Makes tapeta debut. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Kanakam (7/4), Dougies Dream (4/1), Sandret (5/1), Desert Land (11/2), Ron O (17/2), Frog And Toad (12/1), Eligible (12/1), Broctune Red (14/1), Little Jo (16/1), Come On John (16/1), Ha Long Bay (25/1), Corvair (33/1), Saisons D'Or (40/1), Jewel Of Kabeir (150/1)

KANAKAM finished well from a poor position when a good third on handicap debut at Southwell last time and this track should play to his strengths, so he gets the narrow vote ahead of Ron O, who made a positive start for Ray Craggs over C&D last time. Little Jo also boasts solid claims.
