Has run well in his two bumper outings to date, coming 2nd and 3rd.

Both of those efforts came on very testing ground and he’s just not quite seen out his race.

Might just appreciate the switch to quicker ground and has improved with each run. Can get off the mark here.

Win Double - Lake Forest (3.00) & Mr Lightside (16:45) both to win

Lake Forest is a promising contender for the 3.00 at Ebor, winner of last year's Gimcrack stake, his suitability for the 7-furlong distance and along with a skilled rider in Tom Marquand puts the horse as our favourite for this race.

Mr. Lightside is a strong contender in the 16:45 at Ebor having previously won at Redcar and Nottingham and finishing third at Goodwood. He prefers to lead and is expected to perform well.

Sorry, no tips are available today!

Dark Horse (14:25) - Terrorise

The upcoming race is highly competitive, with many horses having a chance to win. Despite being a longshot, Terrorise has been well-backed by connections and could benefit from the extra distance and the experienced jockey Shay Farmer, who has a perfect record at York.

Looks a big price coming into this in decent form in similar contests. Winning at Wolverhampton before coming a close 4th at Southwell off an elevated mark.

Has placed at this venue previously and connections put a 3lbs claimer in the saddle.

Can go well again from off the pace.
