11/8

Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 2/1, looked unlucky when third of 11 in handicap at Redcar (8f, soft) 6 days ago, conceding first run having been denied a clear run. Major player from this much-reduced mark.

11/4

Winner at Wolverhampton in April. Good third of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 13/8) 21 days ago, unsuited by way race developed having been forced wide. Makes turf debut and he's not yet exposed.

Forecasts

Young Fire (11/8), Little Empire (11/4), Propagation (6/1), Darker (8/1), End Zone (10/1), Paco's Pride (14/1), Rosenpur (33/1), Grey Force One (66/1)

Having dropped a long way in the weights, YOUNG FIRE is back in good order, perhaps an unlucky loser at Redcar on Tuesday given he was denied a clear run. He makes plenty of appeal, with unexposed Irish-raider Little Empire feared most, ahead of Paco's Pride.
