Verdict

Earn Your Stripes got off the mark dropped into a seller at Hamilton but this looks a bit more competitive. Sixcor is coping well with a busy schedule and is seeking a third course win of the campaign, though is possibly better over 5f. ABSOLUTE DREAM was third under a big weight at Doncaster after winning at Ripon and Richard Fahey’s gelding may extend the frustrating run of Idoapologise, who keeps finding one too good and hasn’t won since September 2020. Rory rarely runs over this trip nowadays while Carlisle winner Monsieur Kodi couldn’t cope with a 6lb rise at Doncaster but Giselles Izzy has place claims again.
