2/1

Unlucky fourth of 11 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, good to firm) 34 days ago, forced to switch twice in last 2f. Can gain compensation off a career-low mark.

Forecasts

Out Of Sight (2/1), Dandy's Angel (11/4), Sun Festival (11/4), Dark Company (18/5), Star Of St James (5/1), Irv (6/1), Her Way (10/1), Bigbadboy (16/1), Captain St Lucifer (18/1), Le Bayou (25/1)

OUT OF SIGHT didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth at Bath last time and can make amends here off a career-low mark. C&D winner Irv also wasn't seen to best effect when fourth at Ripon on his most recent start and is next on the list, with Dandy's Angel in the mix too on the back of his C&D success ten days ago.
