THE TIMEFORM VIEW CARRIGEEN CASTLE would have split next-time-out winners had he stayed on his feet at Wetherby last time so looks fairly treated off the same mark. Ladronne is the oldest in the line-up but his Sedgefield win in November shows he’s still every bit as good as ever and he can fill the forecast spot.
