Verdict

A number of trainers are either doubly or triply represented, so this low grade handicap certainly isn't anywhere near as competitive as the numbers might suggest. A low draw is helpful, so with many of those in the line-up holding no obvious chance on form, the recent 5f Thirsk contest won by Pearl Noir holds plenty of clues. Culloden (fourth) could conceivably get the run on Kingstreet Lady (second) around this sharp track, but either way both horses should be on the premises at the finish. However, we'll take a slight chance and row in with the other Ruth Carr trained runner KIBAAR. He's well drawn in stall four, and worth a punt off his current mark in such a weak contest.
  1. Kibaar
  2. Culloden
  3. Kingstreet Lady
