Upsanddowns, Solway Trigger and Kai Broon worth punts at Perth

Lisa Harrison’s seven-year-old is yet to get his head in front in 14 starts but did post some really solid efforts to make the frame last season.

They included a 2 3/4 length second to Marawek in this contest off a mark of 73 and Solway Trigger is now able to race off 1lb lower.

It gives the gelding every chance from a handicapping perspective, and he comes into the contest on the back of a pipe-opener at Sedgefield following 318 days on the sidelines which should have put him spot on for this.

Kai Broon fancied to bounce back

Kai Broon has become dangerously well-treated and looks the answer to the 2m 4f handicap chase (16:40).

The Lucinda Russell trained gelding was last successful at Hexham 15 months ago when bolting up by 20 lengths off a mark of 99.

Kai Broon got hit hard by the assessor and put up to 114 for that runaway success and it’s fair to say that he has struggled since.

However, that has resulted in the handicapper cutting the nine-year-old plenty of slack and he is now able to race off a reduced rating of just 94.

That is 5lb lower than when last victorious and gives Kai Broon major claims at the weights, if bouncing back to anything like his best.
