TARBAAN is one of three stable runners today, when lining up for the 7.10 at Newmarket tonight, a 1m2f handicap and he’s below a winning mark, so could be interesting each-way under Kevin Stott at around 9/1.
He’s slipped to his lowest ever mark of 74 and the reapplication of cheekpieces could help. The one to beat though is the hat- trick seeking Finest Leader under William Buick.
Fly Pass (3.10 Thirsk) needs the step up in trip to 7f to bring about improvement. Brandon Wilkie takes a useful 7lbs off this 9/1 shot who would have an each-way squeak.
Back at HQ, at 5.25pm, Lady Of Africa, rated 47 has it all to do in a six-runner seller. Adam Farragher, claims 3lbs but that’s unlikely to be enough in this company for the 33/1 runner.
