A winner at Carlisle in April, The Electrician didn’t run badly in a couple of runs here at the start of the summer but was never travelling last time at Cartmel and has since left Mike Smith’s yard. Kildrum is a course specialist but was half-a-length behind GIPSY LEE ROSE when they filled the places in this last year and Nick Alexander’s mare has much the best of the weights today. Rostello is proving hard to place but it would be no surprise to see Tommydan bounce back.
