Made it 3 wins from last 4 starts when taking 10-runner handicap (9/2) at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) 9 days ago, driven out. Seems sure to go well again under a penalty.

Eldeyaar³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Kieran Schofield| T: A Brittain| OR: 53| CD

Q Twenty Boy¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Alicia Perkins⁽⁷⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 50| CD

11/1

C&D winner who shaped as if back in form when length third of 10 to Nazca in minor event at Chelmsford City (6f) 10 days ago, never nearer after missing the break. Could reverse the form with that rival if breaking on terms this time.

Forecasts

Boarhunt (4/1), Show Compassion (5/1), Lancashire Life (11/2), Gatwick Kitten (11/2), Nazca (13/2), Eldeyaar (9/1), Peachey Carnehan (9/1), Q Twenty Boy (11/1), Coast (18/1), Coley's Koko (33/1)

GATWICK KITTEN showed a good turn of foot to resume winning ways at Yarmouth last week and is the percentage call to follow up under a penalty. Lancashire Life and Q Twenty Boy are a couple of potential threats.
