Stewards Note:

FIFTYSHADESOFRED: Following its run on 10/6/2023 it was reported that the horse was hampered on the home bend.

MARTIN’S BRIG: Following its run on 30/5/2023 it was reported that the horse was denied a clear run.

PROBABLE S.P.’s

THE TIMEFORM VIEW

MARTIN’S BRIG was unlucky not to win at this track last month, and granted better luck in-running this time, David Thompson’s charge can gain compensation dropped back down to 7f Fiftyshadesofred has tumbled in the weights, and he could emerge as the main danger, with the promising Conor Planas booked to ride Coaxing and Alseeyerthere can fight out third spot.
