Verdict
This moderate contest to open the card at Cartmel can go to Wainak, who will have benefited greatly from two recent outings in the north. The five-year-old is a consistent type who is long overdue a change of fortune, and has the ideal opportunity to get off the mark today. He can set his own pace and is taken to have a little in hand over Olithiaga at the finish.
