5/2

11/8, improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap at this C&D 8 days ago. Eased down there so he holds obvious claims under a 5 lb penalty.

Spanish Angel (5/2), Yaahobby (9/2), Gunnerside (9/2), Kraken Power (5/1), Canzone (6/1), Rose Bandit (13/2), Imperial Khan (25/1), Glen Lomond (40/1), Littlemissattitude (66/1)

SPANISH ANGEL scored emphatically over C&D only 8 days ago and a 5 lb penalty doesn't look sufficient to prevent Ruth Carr's 6-y-o from following up. Hat-trick seeking Kraken Power can have a say too with Rose Bandit another recent C&D scorer who needs factoring in.
