Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. Eighth of 9 in handicap (13/2) at this C&D (firm) 36 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Others more appealing.

5/2
Not won for a while but come close the last twice, latest when good second of 10 in handicap at this course (8f, good to firm) a fortnight ago. Step back up in trip should suit and must enter calculations.

Ninth of 11 in handicap (10/1) at Hamilton (11.1f, good) 45 days ago. Tongue strap back on, cheekpieces back on. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Below best in recent starts but ran well in defeat earlier this summer and has been cut some slack by the handicapper. Respected.

Forecasts

Young Fire (5/2), Bay Dream Believer (11/4), Meet Me In Meraki (7/2), Stipulation (11/2), Kalikapour (10/1), Casilli (10/1), Very Classy (40/1)

Verdict

MEET ME IN MERAKI was unlucky not to score at Chepstow last week and remains on a fair mark. He can make amends here. Young Fire arrives in good form and is feared most, whilst Bay Dream Believer can also make her presence felt.

  1. Meet Me In Meraki7/2
  2. Young Fire5/2
  3. Bay Dream Believer11/4
