Elland Road Boy disappointed at Newcastle having won on the Fibresand at Southwell before that. Obtuse drops down in trip bidding for a hat-trick after securing a double over 6f at Lingfield while Onaledge placed at Chelmsford on her latest start. AMASOVA was fitted with blinkers on her debut for new connections and placed over course and distance. She won’t start at 33/1 today and should go close to opening her account. You've Charmed Me goes handicapping for the first time and is worthy of a second glance on her return from a lay-off.
