Despite a penalty, the in-form WATER OF LEITH is still well treated on past form and Jim Goldie’s charge could record a third win in four starts. Jackmeister Rudi is having a first run for Katie Scott but Majeski Man could be interesting having been well supported making his debut for Paul Midgley at Beverley, where he wasn’t beaten far in a bunch finish. Raydoun is starting to slip down the weights again and looks the pick of the remainder.
