Nomoreblackjack (5/2), Halcyon Days (9/2), Supreme Asset (5/1), Uno Valoroso (7/1), Harleys Max (7/1), Treat Yourself (11/1), Pamak D'airy (12/1), Welcome Ben (14/1), Rosquero (16/1)

Verdict

A tricky race to assess with Halcyon Days remaining in good order despite the attentions of the handicapper. Similar comments apply to Harleys Max, who will find it tough to follow up a recent success over further back at this minimum trip, whilst Rosquero generally performs well at this track. Treat Yourself could well be the market springer, but a sporting chance is taken with UNO VALOROSO who could be tough to peg back if getting loose and jumping well off the front end. 1. Uno Valoroso 2. Treat Yourself 3. Halcyon Days
