High Gosforth Park Golf Club Handicap Stakes

Havanagreattime rates as the pick of these on our figures and has run over today's trip and going, giving him a solid foundation here; the concern is that he has been winless in his last five starts, with a string of unplaced efforts making the turnaround hard to take on trust.

Havana Prince has run over today's trip and going before, but his recent form is a concern — unplaced in two of his last four starts and eighth latest, with only a win four starts back and a third five starts back to offer encouragement; the 139 lb burden won't help either.

Bloodsweatandtyres showed he can win in recent starts, but three unplaced efforts since that success are a concern, and a trainer firing at just five per cent dampens confidence; he has run over today's trip and going, though 136 lb is a stiff ask from stall seven.

Orne shaped with promise when third three starts back and arrives here fit enough after 40 days off, with experience of today's distance and going in his favour; winless in recent starts, but drawing stall one and carrying 136 lb, our figures suggest he merits respect.

Up The Agenda has finished fourth, sixth, eighth and seventh in his last four starts, making him hard to fancy, though a win five starts back shows he can find the winner's enclosure and he has experience of today's trip and going.
