Carlisle Race 2 - Grandad Bill Whinnow Ebf Restricted Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
MAY BEE IN PROFIT (8) brings the strongest recent form, close 3rd at Windsor over 1217m beaten 1.55L after a narrow 2nd at Beverley over 1005m. CALL NICKI (6) is a key chance off a 3rd at Thirsk over 1005m, beaten 1.5L, after a 4th there on debut. TAMAM STAR (2) was 3rd at Thirsk over 1005m and 4th at Musselburgh beaten 1.9L, and maps as another solid contender. Reduced numbers enhance the prospects of this trio on exposed juvenile form.
