Stewards Note:

LIAMARTY DREAMS: Following its run on 8/7/2023 it was reported that the horse hung right-handed.

PROBABLE S.P.’s

THE TIMEFORM VIEW

A useful handicap LIBERTY LANE could do with learning to race more efficiently but there’s still a feeling he could have a bigger performance in him and he’s taken to see off his older rivals Positive Impact struggled in Dubai at the start of the year but did well in Britain in 2022 and is second choice with Connor Planas taking 5lb off his back. The likeable Pisanello should give it another good shot, while Koy Koy is fresh for this time of year and should find this easier than the Hunt Cup

THE TIMEFORM VIEW

RAINBOW RAIN was better than ever when doubling his career tally at Thirsk a month ago and in a race featuring mainly out-of-form rivals he looks to have plenty in his favour Mutanaaseq is the other recent winner but the drop back in trip isn’t bound to suit, with Lancashire Life another to consider
