CAILIN NA RI has looked as if needing further so with Martin Todhunter booking Graham Lee for the ride, we are confident of seeing her leave behind a slightly disappointing run at Sedgefield. Identity Parade was very much on the upgrade last term and somewhat surprisingly, Donald McCain elects to use a 7lb claiming amateur. Court Red Handed represents a yard in form so it will be no surprise to see him go well despite rising 8lb for a win at Ludlow. The tongue strap has interestingly been applied alongside the cheekpieces. You Know Yourself has got in off a seemingly light weight and has not been totally unfancied in novice company. Similar comments that apply to Lost Glory, who whilst well beaten against much better opposition, has been given a chance by the assessor to turn around Ludlow form with Court Red Handed. Corso Palladio was beaten when odds on at Cartmel though it is generally easy to forgive such apparently poor runs at what is a very esoteric circuit.
