Verdict

ITSZABOY represents a strong-looking Redcar form line and he can get off the mark here. Barleybrown is potentially well treated and remains of interest in this grade, whilst Here Comes Louie has a valid excuse for last time and would merit consideration on his prior efforts.

6	Improved when second of 8 in handicap at Redcar (1m, good to firm, 33/1) 25 days ago. That race has already thrown up 2 next-time-out winners, so a repeat of the performance should see him go close. 1st Pick 6 Itszaboy Jockey: Alex Jary Trainer: Nigel Tinkler J: Alex Jary T: Nigel Tinkler	100	-	-	-	27%	11/4

1	Four-time C&D winner hasn't scored for a while but is still lurking on a handy mark, as evidenced by his half-length second at this C&D in June. Unsuited by how the race panned out when fifth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (1m, 8/1) 17 days ago and isn't taken lightly. 2nd Pick 1 Barleybrown Jockey: Joanna Mason Trainer: Ruth Carr J: Joanna Mason T: Ruth Carr	97	-	-	-	17%	5/1

5	Unlucky second of 13 dropped to this trip in a classified stakes at Thirsk and backed that up when second in handicap company at Southwell early last month. Probably found his next outing at Redcar coming too soon after just 48 hours off and it'd be no surprise if he were back to form here. 3rd Pick 5 Here Comes Louie Jockey: Conor Whiteley Trainer: Roger Fell J: Conor Whiteley T: Roger Fell	93	-	-	-	24%	10/3
