Punters got no run for their money at Sedgefield when WESTERN BREEZE sensationally unshipped her rider at the start but the vastly experienced Noel Fehily has been booked for the ride and compensation awaits. Beauboreen is on a long losing run though soft ground suits and he is respected having previously won when fresh. Menace has relatively few miles on the clock and his run at Exeter suggested that he could benefit from this step up in trip. Mudlark Ratify has dropped 13lb in the handicap since he last saw the racecourse and the veteran would be a danger to all if fit enough to take advantage. On The Right Path beat Holywell here in 2012 but injury has blighted his career and this will only be his fourth visit to the track since.
