Simple Star^t¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: D Tudhope| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 71| C| D

7/2

A 3-time course winner who has returned in better heart than recent cross-code form figures might suggest. Drops in grade back on the level (tongue tie back on) and of interest with Danny Tudhope up.

Form: 5128-96

Spit Spot^p,t¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: Lexie Clarkson⁽⁷⁾| T: L Russell & M Scudamore| OR: 67| C

40/1

Won a couple of 3m handicap hurdles at Perth last season but lost her action when pulled up in that sphere in April and was well beaten following a breathing operation on belated Flat return here a fortnight ago. Has a bit to prove.

Elemental Eye^p¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 63| C| D

7/1

Won at Redcar (2m) and this track last summer. Shaped as if better for the run after 11 weeks off at Ripon 19 days ago and should be closer to form back at this venue having been dropped another 2 lb.

Form: 6017-55

Cascade Hall^h¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 8-8| J: Lauren Young⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 59| BF

1/3

Has returned in good form under this rider, beating a subsequent winner by 10 lengths in 4-runner 15f Ayr handicap then edged out by an unexposed stable-switcher at Carlisle (1¾m, soft, 5/2) 18 days ago. Longer trip/3 lb rise shouldn't be an issue and big shout in current mood.

Form: 5507-12

Star Of Markinch¹⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 8-4| J: Amie Waugh⁽³⁾| T: Gary Rutherford| OR: 45

66/1

Long-standing maiden who has run up to her best here the last twice but will do well to open her account in this grade.

Forecasts

Cascade Hall (1/3), Simple Star (7/2), Velvet Whisper (7/2), Elemental Eye (7/1), Kisiyra (8/1), Spit Spot (40/1), Star Of Markinch (66/1)

SIMPLE STAR didn't run too badly over hurdles at Kelso last time and could be the way to go down in grade back on the level. Cascade Hall has returned in fine form and looks set for another good run, while Elemental Eye is also in with a shout.
