Back in good form lately, winning 5f handicaps at York and Beverley (also close second at Newmarket in between). Should make his presence felt again.

Thriving for this yard now, winning a Hamilton apprentice race last week. Escapes a penalty and William Pyle couldn't claim in the Hamilton race but takes off 5 lb now. Obvious claims.

C&D winner. Four win from 11 runs this year. Latest win at Pontefract in July and can have his latest Thirsk run ignored (blindfold removed late and slowly away).

C&D winner last year and also runner-up here in June. Below par since but favourably handicapped if staging a revival at a venue which suits.

Unlucky not to finish closer when fifth of 7 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to soft, 4/1) 13 days ago, keeping on when snatched up in the final 50 yds. Merits consideration.

Forecasts

Borough (7/2), Harry With Style (9/2), Albegone (11/2), Soul Seeker (11/2), High Opinion (6/1), Astapor (17/2), Fortunate Star (17/2), Good Luck Fox (10/1)

Verdict

BOROUGH escapes a penalty for last week's Hamilton success and is taken to make it 3 wins in his last 4 starts. Soul Seeker is in similarly good form to the selection and is second choice ahead of Bryan Smart's High Opinion.
