11/10

Free-going type who has enjoyed a productive summer, winning a trio of Pontefract handicaps (all 17.1f). Fair run at Musselburgh latest and could be tough to pass if allowed to dictate matters and settling.

9/4

Has won at Carlisle and this track over much shorter this term. Has shaped better than the bare result the last twice, and while he takes a sizeable hike in distance here he's of real interest in a race that could become tactical.

5/2

With cheekpieces refitted, back to form when winning 11-runner handicap at Redcar (14f, good to firm) 2 weeks ago, up there throughout. Another here who won't be hanging around and not ruled out with stamina proven.

Forecasts

Yorkindness (11/10), Gibside (9/4), Tendentious (5/2), Red Force One (12/1)

This could get messy but if YORKINDNESS can settle in front it's easy to see her making all. Gibside is an unknown quantity over this sort of trip but he's yet to run a bad race at York and could emerge as the danger.
