Carlisle 4.25
Carlisle 4.25 2 Carrigdhoun - 1 point each way @ 10/1
I am very keen on CARRIGHDOUN . The horse has excellent Course and Course and Distance form overthis trip and slightly shorter, it's wins are on slightly better ground but it can handle heavy Going and after 2 runs will be
cherry rip. It just flattened out over 3 miles here last time before getting a second wind and its Course record is excellent;
a step back up to this trip looks ideal and it is off an effective mark of 123, very competitive. The icing on the cake is that
the yard had a nice winner at Sedgefield yesterday with the same improving jockey. Dangers abound and but for the lack
of a run I would be looking at the likes of Courtown Oscar and Goohar as big dangers, but neither have compelling form
fresh and I will watch and track them as I'm sure both can win before the turn of the year; Shanroe Santos makes a long
trip up here and has to be a danger but may just be better at 3 miles; but would be my second best rated; with the favourite
looking to be too short given a distinct lack of proven stamina, although scope to improve for sure.
