Forecasts

Almost Gemini (6/4), Raise A Spark (85/40), Morning Royalty (3/1), Pistol (10/1)

Verdict

Catterick winner RAISE A SPARK can take for his leading trainer. The selection remains less exposed than most in this contest and his third at Haydock in January reads very well in the context of this and he is taken to get the better of Almost Gemini who can step up on his first run of 2017 at Catterick last month by claiming second ahead of Morning Royalty and Pistol.
