Hyperfocus (7/2), Golden Apollo (7/2), Sir Maximilian (5/1), Growl (6/1), Roundhay Park (6/1), Quick Look (8/1), Ice Age (11/1), Polybius (12/1), Bossipop (14/1), Gulliver (16/1), Pipers Note (16/1), Desert Doctor (20/1), Muscika (20/1), Royal Brave (28/1)

The feature race of the evening presents itself as a tricky puzzle to solve. Hyperfocus and Muscika are both interesting off the back of their Thirsk run 18 days ago. However, preference is for POLYBIUS . The selection is only 2lb above his last winning mark and the combination of the drop in trip/grade can see him return to winning ways for his trainer David Simcock who is operating at a 19% strike-rate over the last two weeks.
