A few of these won't want it too soft and perhaps soft enough after some heavy rain on Sunday.

 

A recent Course and Distance race where Native Robin beat FLAGRANT DELITIEP and Lots of Luck looks to be a solid form pointer. Native Robin obliged on better Going that suits it and a small penalty pushes it back beyond a ceiling that it can normally win off. I can't see any reason why FLAGRANT DELITIEP who finished strongly and is more suited to these underfoot conditions wont reverse form, nor beat Lots Of luck once again.

 

Vocaliser goes for a 4 timer for a Yard who seem to have learnt the dark arts of staying in front of the handicapper, it's won off 93-97-103 but with a conditional claimer up gets in off 114 with a 5lbs claim. I'll wager this is tougher than those wins and go against it winning again. This Breac is one to keep an eye on, may need this run and probably a half mile further but one to track on it's next couple of runs possibly over 2 miles 7 furlongs at Exeter in the coming 3-6 weeks.

 

I think AIR NAVIGATOR is very well handicapped here. It's below last win mark of 115 at Ffos Llas at 2 miles 5 furlongs, Ciaran Gethings gets the leg up and I think can use that proven stamina in soft to good advantage. The horse has twice placed here over 3 miles and with a few being outside proven stamina and Going comfort zones would be no surprise to see a bold front running effort at nice odds.

In the 2.05 race, I think BALLADAME is a crack each way bet to nothing if you can get 5/1 or around that price and one at bigger odds who could pop up now down to a mark it was competitive off in Ireland in similar conditions is AIR OF ELEGANCE
