Verdict

KIELDER RISE hasn't seen a racecourse for over a year but a rating of 85 looks fairly lenient on some of her bumper form so we are prepared to put her up first time out today. Little Carmela is still a maiden though she has to be respected on her third to Oursininlaw at Fakenham over further. Reg's Ruby has looked in need of this step up in trip for some time so it will be interesting to see how that is reflected in the market. Autumm Spirit has taken on much better opposition than this in the past without troubling the judge. Alex Hales had a winner last week so Bobbisox, who had been campaigned on a softer surface in the past, is one who should not go off the radar from a punting perspective.
