Athlon has the broad shoulders to defy a penalty

North Colin Russell
Stars Over The Sea (4.30 Haydock, nap)

Has been in really good form this summer, winning at Newbury and Pontefract and also finishing in the frame in competitive handicaps at Goodwood and York. Drying ground will suit and though up in the weights, is fancied to win again.

Lambourn James Burn
Athlon (7.40 Chelmsford, nap)

Got a cute ride from George Baker to win at Kempton last week and can strike again despite 6lb penalty. Drop back to 1m2f will not be a problem and had a few entries this week so presumably connections rate this the most winnable one.
