I can find 5 front running types in this field of 10 that have been known to lead before so it should a fast gallop from the off but with this many front runners it very often sets it up for something coming from off the pace as the front runners tire nearing the finish.
Dandy Speirpoint could be a danger from the front if its fast enough to keep up with the others here because this horse looks a better prospect over a longer distance but if getting outpaced it might not be speedy enough to pick up the leaders.
The 10yo You're Cool would have won this race 2 or 3 years ago but seems on the decline nowadays.
The betting will be the deciding factor of whether I have any lays in this race but looking at the early tissue prices I can only see one that's forecast to be a single figure price.
As for the winner I will split my stakes between 2 horses, firstly HEY HO LET'S GO 9/2 who likes to track the leaders and then stay on resolutely nearing the finish and secondly TOPLIGHT 15/2 who is usually held up for a late run when there's a fast early pace and then run on strongly in the latter stages of the race, so I have hopefully got both angles covered.
Toplight 20/1 5th -1pt
Hey Ho Let's Go 8/1 6th -1pt
Total on the day -2pts
