Verdict

A devilishly tricky-looking sprint handicap in which you'd be reluctant to confidently dismiss any of the fourteen declared runners. Martineo is unbeaten on Tapeta at Wolverhampton (3-3) and should run a solid race with James Doyle in the saddle, although he is unlikely to offer any value at the projected odds. Others to consider include the course specialists Athollblair Boy and Epeius, as well as the back in-form Inaam. However, at more significant odds a couple against the field are Manshood and MUTABAAHY, with the latter-named returning to Gosforth Park off a fairly attractive mark (69) as the definite pick of the Anthony Brittain-trained duo.
  1. Mutabaahy
  2. Martineo
  3. Manshood
