Jkr Cobbler
18/1
Though he evidently has a quirk or two, KIRKDALE is certainly capable of winning a race of this nature off his present mark and he is appealing with an experienced apprentice in the hot-seat. Expert Agent won't be far away if responding well to the new headgear and Jkr Cobbler is another who could have a say. Cargin Bhui should be winning soon but this may come too soon on the back of his respectable third at Southwell on Tuesday.

Race Hints

Specific Pace Hint: This could develop into a sprint for home, and True Promise could be well placed to capitalise: Of the better-fancied horses, Kirkdale is most likely to be ridden furthest from the pace.
Individual Price Hint: Kirkdale traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 25% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 5 starts: True Promise traded at 25% or less of Betfair SP and 50% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 5 starts.
