Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Mr Henry Main⁽³⁾| T: H Main| OR: 59

9/2

Twenty three runs since last win in 2021. 12/1, respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Haydock (11.6f, firm) 34 days ago, making late headway. Needs considering back up in trip. Visor on for 1st time.

Clifftop Heaven²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Miss Brodie Hampson| T: A Watson| OR: 58| C

10/3

Course winner who made light of an 18-month absence when scoring at Wolverhampton in May. Good third at Haydock next time and then probably found the race coming too soon at Ripon. Worth the chance to get back on track.

Form: 041/135

(3)

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Miss Lauren Sanders⁽⁷⁾| T: J R Norton| OR: 45

Myboymax¹⁴

Weight: 10-9| Age: 6

T: Micky Hammond J: Miss Becky Smith

Forecasts

Myboymax (2/1), Ebony Maw (11/4), Clifftop Heaven (10/3), Captain Haddock (9/2), Can Can Girl (11/2), Swift Tuttle (15/2), Kojin (11/1), Royal Observatory (20/1), Freewheelin (50/1), Monticello (50/1)

CLIFFTOP HEAVEN possibly found the race coming too soon last time and is well worth the chance to get back on track. Ebony Maw is going through a good spell and seems likely to continue in form, while Captain Haddock is worth a second look stepping back up in trip.
