Verdict

ALBEGONE is worth treating as if still in form and makes appeal in a thin-looking race. Bust A Moon went with much more encouragement at Carlisle last time and is also considered, with Jojo Rabbit still lurking on a handy mark if able to bounce back.

1	Ended a long losing run in 6-runner handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm) in August and encouragingly was able to back that up when finding only a revitalised rival too strong at Carlisle (5f) earlier this month. Had no luck in the run at Redcar last week and is respected. 1st Pick 1 Albegone Jockey: Jake Dickson Trainer: Tim Easterby J: Jake Dickson T: Tim Easterby	97	-	-	-	42%	7/5

5	Landed a 5f Beverley seller last May for Ian McInnes and produced his best effort for this yard when fourth of 12 in handicap at Carlisle (5f, good to soft) 15 days ago, nearest finish. On a handy mark if regular slow starts can be rectified. 2nd Pick 5 Bust A Moon Jockey: Jack Dace Trainer: Derek Shaw J: Jack Dace T: Derek Shaw	93	-	-	-	9%	11/1

2	All the better for reappearance when landing soft-ground handicap at C&D in April (from 4 lb higher mark). Shaped up quite well without really being seen to maximum effect a couple of times over the summer but seemingly no excuses when down the field at Leicester earlier this month. 3rd Pick 2 Jojo Rabbit Jockey: William Pyle Trainer: Ruth Carr J: William Pyle T: Ruth Carr	100	-	-	-	39%	8/5
