Hop House 13 Handicap

Celtic Druid has placed last time out and was third two starts back, but ranked 19 of 21 on our figures, he looks up against it here; the experience over today's trip and going offers some consolation, though 140 lb is a stern burden.

Winless in her last five starts but has placed twice in that sequence and brings solid each-way claims here as the top-rated runner; she has run over today's going before, and third last time out and a second two starts back suggest she retains form, though 123 days off will need to be overcome.

Tatum arrives on the back of a win last time out and a victory five starts back, with experience over today's trip and going working in her favour. Carrying 140 lb after just eight days' turnaround is the one concern.

Baila Conmigo won last time out and has going experience in his favour, but his two wins in his last six starts are offset by a fifth two runs back, and 139 lb is a stern ask for a gelding ranked 14 of 21 on our ratings.

Bounced back to win last time out, but six days is a quick turnaround and he's been inconsistent in recent starts, with four finishes outside the placings in his last six. Has run over today's going, and 139 lb is no featherweight.
