Thirsk

Today, April 22, 2025FlatClass 67fGood Firm

EMERALD ARMY picked up where he left off in the autumn when staying on to land a 6f handicap here 10 days ago. A 3 lb rise looks perfectly fair and with the step up to 7f likely to suit if anything, he has lots in his favour. Captain Vallo was runner-up at the same meeting so is a fit and in-form rival to consider, with Ribble Radiant of interest after a more promising effort at Catterick.

    Verdict
    11/2, career best when winning 17-runner handicap at this course (6f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Has to be taken seriously given he's equally effective over 7f and isn't yet exposed.

    Verdict
    Latest win at Newcastle in January. Good second of 9 in handicap (22/1) at this course (6f, good to firm) 10 days ago, faring best of those held up. Looks worth another go at 7f on that evidence. Cheekpieces off.
