Race Tip

MOONLIT STAGE (5) finished runner-up to a progressive horse on his nursery debut at Wolverhampton (1m1 1/2f) in September. Trainer Ed Dunlop sends him on the long journey north and he looks to have every chance of going one spot better. A chief threat could come from recent Redcar winner FORCE OF HONOUR (4) who steps up to 1m2f for the first time under a 7lb penalty. After dead-heating for first GRETNA DREAMS (2) was awarded the race by stewards tackling 1m1 1/2f on handicap debut at Wolverhampton. The Simon Pearce trained filly could have more to offer. CORPUS JURIS (3) also merits each-way consideration.
