All racecards for Saturday 5th September
We said9th of 9, beaten 11½ at 18/1
KOSOMETSUKE 15/2
KOSOMETSUKE at 15/2, Michael Dods and Connor Beasley, is the one I would be with. He has already won around this track, handles the ground, with a win from 2 on it and gets a trip he has won over.
GOOD KARMA rates higher on our figures but is passed over on the ground — 3 runs on soft or heavy, never won, never placed — and today is soft.
The dangers are NATIVE HONEY at 11/1 (went close off this mark) and NATIVE INSTINCT at 16/5 (went close off this mark).
Non-runners: Wreck It Ryley.
