All racecards for Thursday 15th October
We said13th of 14, beaten 45¾ at 11/2
PRIDE EYE 8/1
PRIDE EYE at 8/1, Mark Rimell and Ryan Kavanagh, is the standout, and this is exactly the sort of race to find one. He races off a mark 5lb below the 52 it won from in January and has won here.
The one worry is weakened last time and run style against this track.
The dangers are LIBERTY BIRD at 22/1 (a course winner) and OXFORD CIRCUS at 9/4 (on a falling mark).
