Roman River (5/2), Shepherd's Purse (10/3), Jabbarockie (7/2), Patrick (5/1), Iconic Knight (11/1), Confessional (12/1), Ocelot (20/1), Lydiate Lady (25/1), Big Time Maybe (33/1), Red Stripes (66/1)

Verdict

This looks a complex little puzzle to solve with a couple of the older horses running off marks they should be able to be competitive off now but facing some improving three-year-olds. SHEPHERD'S PURSE ought to be able to land a race in this grade given how well he ran last time out as should Patrick whose down to a good mark and ran well from a poor draw at Pontefract last time. Iconic Knight and Roman River are the best of the younger brigade with the former of that duo preferred whilst Jabbarockie should be happier back on a flatter track. Both Lydiate Lady and Ocelot had fine seasons last year and neither is ruled out here having both run well this year already.
  1. Shepherd's Purse
  2. Patrick
  3. Ocelot
