WHITE DEER is thrown-in on his old form and is fancied to bounce back to form. A mark of 72 looks too tempting and with the step back up in trip probably in his favour he is expected to perform with more credit today. Cavendish Road's best form is at Brighton and he is taken on here, as is Ours who was probably flattered at Ripon last time by the winner running out of puff late on. Carlitos Spirit caught the eye at Pontefract last time and looks ready to win, a comment that also applies to Steel Stockholder. Piquante has more on her plate after a Redcar victory, whilst Call Of Duty is better than his Newcastle flop and along with the recent Geordie scorer Castle Myth is not one to leave out of calculations.
