IDDER probably didn’t get home over further at Catterick last time. He had looked progressive when getting off the mark over this track and trip earlier, when Life Knowledge was beaten 12 lengths, and may have too much class for today’s rivals. Newcastle second Baby Ticker has no form on going this quick while Craig Star has shown nothing in two starts since joining Donald McCain. Mr Kite has only shown modest form so far but should strip fitter for his third here at the start of the month.
