Verdict

AHORSEWITHNONAME has a penalty to carry for an easy victory over this trip on soft ground at Catterick. A winning bumper, he won't want the ground to dry out but should be capable of conceding the weight to Vibrance. James Fanshawe's filly started odds-on for her handicap debut at Kempton but found Hermosura much too strong. No Dress Rehearsal failed to stay 1m6f on heavy ground at Haydock in June but has been staying on over 1m2f so this could be her trip. Tranquil Storm has her first start for Kevin Ryan after transferring from the French Provinces where she showed only moderate form.
