Verdict

MONEY FOR NOTHING is his yard's only runner of the day and makes the long journey to Sedgefield from Somerset. He's in decent form, and it will be a long way home if he fails to land the spoils. Black Kettle may be better for his first run since a wind op and has a top man on board today so comes into the reckoning in a poor race, along with the in-form Roxyfet who has caught the handicapper's eye of late. It's hard to enthuse over the other four, although veteran Duhallow County has run well here on occasions.
  1. Money For Nothing
  2. Roxyfet
  3. Black Kettle
