ART COLLECTION (NAP, Haydock 3.40) is a real masterpiece in this grade and can keep the Ruth Carr landscape looking a pretty picture.
The in-form Yorkshire handler had one of her biggest-ever wins at Epsom last week and this four-year-old gelding looks ready to strike after a strong-finishing fourth in a better race at Donny last time.
Andrew Balding is another trainer in the winning groove and he is not sending CARTAVIO (nb, Carlisle 7.10) all the way to Cumbria just to look at the scenery.
The three-year-old has been put up just 4lb for a solid success at Salisbury over a furlong further and he should appreciate this tough track.
GURKHA FRIEND (Ripon, 3.30) has been the punter’s pal at Ripon recently with two wins at the North Yorkshire venue.
He held on gamely to win over nine furlongs last time but this mile trip is perfect for this front-runner and Tom Eaves can steer him home.
