All racecards for Saturday 5th September
We said3rd of 8, beaten 1¼ at 4/1
CAPITAL GUARANTEE 9/1
CAPITAL GUARANTEE at 9/1, David O'Meara and Billy Garritty, is the one that stands out. He races off a mark 3lb below the 81 it won from back in August 2025 and has won here 3 times.
The one worry is weakened last time.
NYMAN rates higher on our figures but is passed over on the ground — never run on soft or heavy in 23 starts — and today is soft.
The dangers are MIDNIGHT STRIKE at 10/1 (well handicapped) and OBELIX at 11/4 (well handicapped).
