Modest gelding who was equipped with a hood/tongue tie (retained here) when only seventh of 10 in minor event at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 2 days ago. Had gone close on 2 of his 3 previous starts though, and better showing not ruled out turned out quickly.

Forecasts

Blackcurrent (7/2), Athollblair Boy (4/1), Lezardrieux (9/2), Arlington (5/1), Yaahobby (6/1), Maveric's Magic (9/1), A Lady Forever (20/1), Stallone (25/1), Rockley Point (28/1), Secret Daay (40/1)

Verdict

Old-timer ATHOLLBLAIR BOY is holding his form pretty well this season and would be giving weight to all his rivals if this was a handicap. Blackcurrent only just failed in a similar event over C&D last time so rates the main threat, with Lezardrieux also worth a mention given his record here.

  1. Athollblair Boy4/1
  2. Blackcurrent7/2
  3. Lezardrieux9/2
