13/2

12/1, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good) 17 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and the percentage call is to look elsewhere.

Forecasts

Elzaal (7/2), Motawaazy (4/1), Lady Celia (9/2), He's An Angel (13/2), King Of The Jungle (8/1), Bella Kopella (9/1), Flying Kiss (12/1), Let's Go Hugo (20/1), Another Angel (20/1), Henery Hawk (25/1), Koropick (80/1)

LADY CELIA lost little caste in defeat when third over C&D last time and she could be the answer. Next on the list is Elzaal, who won four times here earlier this year and is now 4 lb below his last winning mark. An on-song Motawaazy would be a danger to all and the consistent Another Angel won't be far away if ready to roll following a break.
