Verdict

Friday's racing should provide some potential clues regarding any perceived draw bias, but this is as competitive a sprint as you'll find anywhere across the country this weekend and will take some unravelling. Kenny The Captain (3), the newly-visored Manshood (4), and the dropped in trip dual Haydock winner Calder Prince (8) are among the older horses worth considering. However, an improving three-year-old rates as a far likelier solution. Youkan (1), Bedouin's Story (14) and Arcavallo (15) all fit this profile, with the Pontefract winner preferred of that trio, but the really interesting, unexposed option is the Karl Burke-trained LORD OBERON (16).
  1. Lord Oberon
  2. Manshood
  3. Arcavallo
