Verdict

Cliff has to concede weight all round and performed more creditably than finishing positions might suggest when coming home in midfield in a decent Pontefract sprint handicap last time. Despite usually running over further, he seems really effective at this trip and should go well. Cool Strutter continues to perform reliably and should be competitive once more but KYLLACH ME has been in really good form the last twice when contesting large-field Thirsk handicaps. He remains on a workable mark and many of the yard's inmates performed very well over the weekend. Carlovian is of interest on a first start for Mark Walford and Searanger, seemingly improved the last twice, is also worth a place on any shortlist.
