Verdict

A tricky sprint handicap to fathom. Michael Herrington has proved himself as an adept handler of sprinters (particularly on the AW) and his duo of Mishaal and DUKE COSIMO could play a leading role. The former has twice gone close on the Kempton Polytrack, and deserves to find a race, but is continually creeping up the weights. Conversely the latter (who is also struggling to win) is slipping back down the weights. Without doubt Duke Cosimo needs to do more, but he's unexposed on the AW, and was 4L third to Spanish City from a mark of 80 on his sole visit to Newcastle in October 2016, yet he lines up tonight from a much reduced mark of 68, so could be worth chancing. Of the others, the returning Doncaster scorer Shesthedream and the consistent Athollblair Boy command respect.
  1. Duke Cosimo
  2. Athollblair Boy
  3. Shesthedream
