Verdict

There are reasons for doubting SANDFRANKIPSGO still has the resolution for a battle as he he's come up short on numerous occasions. However, he's on a very attractive mark just now and may be worth one more throw of the dice in this company. Everkyllachy likes this course and is going through a mini revival just now. He rates as serious contender here. The Big Short, on the other hand, is creeping up the weights after a series of decent efforts, and while Charlies Hills' gelding has to be feared on these terms; he still needs to be at his very best. Zipedeedodah and Something Lucky are others with claims at the weights but have something to prove on recent form.
  1. Sandfrankskipsgo
  2. Everkyllachy
  3. The Big Short
