Verdict

Handicap debutant TWO BROTHERS may be the answer to this tricky puzzle, though Camarrate and the lightly-raced Ryebridge are both feared on their best form.

1	Fairly useful on Flat and though unable to match his hurdle debut form when fourth in 7-runner novice at Wetherby in December, cheekpieces go back on here, and he remains with potential making quick switch to handicaps over longer trip. 1st Pick 1 Two Brothers Jockey: Patrick Wadge Trainer: Michael & David Easterby J: Patrick Wadge T: Michael & David Easterby	100	-	-	-	10%

6	Runner-up in higher grade at Wetherby in October and not for the first time, seemed better for a break when third in 12-runner handicap at Doncaster last time. Should go close if in similar form 3 weeks on. 2nd Pick 6 Camarrate (Ire) Jockey: Theo Gillard Trainer: Donald Mccain J: Theo Gillard T: Donald Mccain	99	-	-	-	12%

5	Chased home fairly useful Moonbow in 2½m Hexham novice last summer, though hasn't matched that form since, including on handicap debut when fourth of 12 at Doncaster last time. Might come on for that. 3rd Pick 5 Ryebridge (Ire) Jockey: Danny Mcmenamin Trainer: Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith J: Danny Mcmenamin T: Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith	98	-	-	-	46%

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Trifecta

A wager picking the first, second and third horses in the exact order. A trifecta box means paying more to ensure the horses can finish in any order in the top three spots.

Dead Heat

Two or more horses finishing so close at the wire, that they were unable to be separated on a photo finish and deemed to have tied.

Minus Pool

A pari-mutuel pool – typically a show pool - where one horse is so heavily bet that after deductions there is not enough money left to cover the prescribed minimum on each bet.
