10/1
Latest win at Windsor in July. Ninth of 13 in handicap (9/1) at Newcastle (6f) 13 days ago. Return to 5f in his favour and this is a slight drop in class.

Twelfth of 13 in handicap at York (5f, soft, 50/1) 15 days ago. Lot to prove on turf for all this is a much more suitable assignment.

10/3
Made second start a winning one over C&D in July. Third of 5 in handicap (11/4) at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 21 days ago, slowly away and he still looks to be learning his craft.

14/1
Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. First run since leaving Darryll Holland when thirteenth of 18 in handicap at York (6f, soft, 9/1) 15 days ago. Down 2 lb and very likely there's more to come from this yard. Back in trip.

10/1
Good second of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f, 7/2) 4 days ago, just failing. Free-goer who is likely to give it another good go, for all this is a deeper race.

Forecasts

Angle Land (3/1), Last Outlaw (10/3), Winged Messenger (5/1), So Smart (8/1), The Defiant (10/1), Dashing Harry (10/1), Faro De San Juan (10/1), Ingleby Archie (12/1), Evocative Spark (14/1), Monks Dream (25/1)

Verdict

This is a rare outing over 5f for EVOCATIVE SPARK but he hasn't been with his up-and-coming yard long and given he has a career-low mark to exploit, he could be the answer. Angle Land and Winged Messenger head the opposition.
