11/10
Produced a career-best when winning 5-runner handicap (8/11) at Musselburgh (16f, good to soft) on debut for new yard 34 days ago, eased down. 11 lb rise has forced him into a higher grade but may well be equal to the task.

8/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (12.1f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Claims judged on peak 2022 form for the Charltons and he needs considering eased slightly in grade here.

9/1, below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, soft) 39 days ago. Entitled to come on for that run (first start for 8 months) and she was consistent last season.

9/4, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Carlisle (11.2f, good to soft) 7 days ago. However, she looks vulnerable here under a 5 lb penalty.

Verdict

The hat-trick beckons for THERMOSCOPE, who improved when scoring on the all-weather on his sole start for Brian Ellison in October and made a winning start for this yard, too, when routing the opposition over 2m at Musselburgh last month. He looks capable of coping with both this drop back in trip and 11 lb higher mark. Arrange should be all the better for her reappearance spin and is feared most ahead of La Pulga.
