Verdict

Not too many of these jump off the page as being well-handicapped but ex-Aiden O'Brien inmate SEAN O'CASEY could be the exception on the evidence of his facile, gamble-landing victory at Yarmouth recently. He's been raised 7lb but, being a well-bred son of Galileo, there could be much more to come from him and he is in good hands. Roger Varian has his yard in superb form which points to a big run from the handicap debutant St Malo, meanwhile Dance King returned to form at Ripon recently and shapes as a possible player.
  1. Sean O'Casey
  2. St Malo
  3. Dance King
