ORBAAN is clearly not the force of old, but the veteran showed more when second over an extended mile at Epsom last month and he could go one better here. Capital Guarantee, a stablemate of the selection, failed to fire at Musselburgh last time but is a player based on his previous Catterick success. Others to note are Visibility, Mount King and Temper Trap. |
ORBAAN was significantly better than this grade in his heyday, and although a beaten favourite off 73 over 9f at Epsom last time out, he is lurking on a very dangerous mark, acts on the ground, won off 81 last season and can't be ignored on this first start in Class 5 company. Boy Douglas was second to his stablemate in this race last year off 73 on good to firm. The gelding possibly needed the race at Redcar on his seasonal return and is just 1lb above his last winning mark running in a race the yard target, with three wins in the last ten years. Mount King was beaten a head off 60 here last time out, represents top course trainer, has handled faster ground and, as former C&D winner only once out of the first two in one of four course starts over 8f, demands respect. |
