Sunderland Race Fields - 15th May 2024

SHEADOGUE LAD (trap 3) has been known to beat the postman to work and, if in one of those moods today, could well deliver the goods. Recent winner Marinas Macau (trap 6) has got the taste for success, but she may have to play second fiddle this time. Onyx Shilo (trap 5) is expected to be chalked up at tasty odds and could out-run his SP.

AUTUMN FABLE (trap 4) should be getting better after season and following such bitches has been a successful formula over the years. Blackberry Elle (trap 2) could be long odds but they may not paint a true picture of her chances. Franklyns Dream (trap 3) would have a part to play if Lady Luck is on her side.

CLOONDARONE JET (trap 1) can be expected to be hunting these up when it comes to the business end of the race and she could even annex the top prize. Crafty Misco (trap 5) should be in the thick of things at the line and is afforded plenty of respect. Canya Atmidnight (trap 2) makes a quick reappearance and isn't without hope.

The odds on reward for MY BOY KAI (trap 2) tend to be skinny for a reason and he has another ace opportunity to put the opposition in the shade. Kilbannon Toby (trap 5) was recently on the winner's podium and would be dangerous if repeating that effort. Moulton Crow (trap 6) is certainly getting to grips with things here.

This could well be plain-sailing for ITSWATSUNITESUS (trap 6) as he should just need to tread carefully early to head the formation on greeting the judge. The downgrade for Eden Hagrid (trap 4) has been noted and he can keep the selection true throughout. Obedient Boy (trap 1) can be around at the close of play and hit the frame.

MALIBU JOTA (trap 1) ticks all the boxes and should dispose of this lot with the minimum of fuss. If tracking cleverly, these will offer little resistance. Fleadh Rojas (trap 2) should be there or thereabouts at the nitty gritty end and is feared as a result. Emers Blake (trap 6) seems reasonably well in, certainly sufficiently so to make the numbers.

MATTS MAE (trap 5) possesses useful early pace and is fancied to get away from these and sustain the gallop all the way to the judge. Jes House Wren (trap 3) shouldn't be leaving empty-handed and looks the obvious danger. The recent win of Noirs Story (trap 1) is locked in the old grey matter.

GONEBEYONDRECALL (trap 5) is one of the sharpest tools in the box early and she will be looking to lead from pillar-to-post against these. Pat Come On (trap 3) is a threat even though his odds could be tasty and appear to suggest otherwise. Ferryforth Harry (trap 4) pulled victory out of the fire latest and has claims of sorts in this.

If things go to plan, supporters of LADY LINCHPIN (trap 1) would be entitled to feel very hopeful that she can prove too good for this level of opposition. Ridgemount Ruth (trap 6) has ability and along with it definite medal possibilities if things go to plan. Stonepark Patsy (trap 5) is a runner now he takes a step down the graded ladder.

RIDGEMOUNT ASPEN (trap 4) will be fully committed to blazing a trail instantly and may not see another rival if doing so. Autumn Jupiter (trap 1) has a shout timewise and should certainly be amongst the medals. Marinas Monza (trap 3) knows how to win and could put the cat amongst the pigeons.

HOLLYHILL COOPER (trap 5) should be much more at home in this class and can be heading up the formation when it comes to the crunch. The bookies tend to chalk up Scarsdale Ellie (trap 2) tentatively for a reason and she should make a bold show. Counting on the fitness levels of Big Time Davy (trap 3), expect a bold showing.

It should be onwards and upwards post season for NOIRS JENNY (trap 3) and, with the run of things, she can be the first to greet the judge here. Pennys Cordova (trap 1) has less to do so is fancied to play quite a big part in proceedings. Wee Tiny (trap 2) may run better than her odds and boost tricast dividends.
