Verdict

Quite a few of these arrive here off the back of absences, so it may pay to side with the race fitness of NOVABRIDGE. He doesn't have the most appealing draw but ticks most other boxes, including form over C&D and a recent win on Tapeta at Newcastle. Just 3lb higher in the weights now he seems the likeliest winner of this ahead of last time out winner Barnsdale, who may just have turned a corner, and Ask The Guru, who looks to replicate his good for on Polytrack on his Tapeta debut.
  1. Novabridge
  2. Barnsdale
  3. Ask The Guru
