Verdict

A tough one to call with most being unexposed handicappers who are still finding their way; Group Stage and Zuba both merit respect as improving individuals and are worth monitoring in the betting market, while Young Merlin and Natty Night have plenty of ability but need to take a step forward this time. Which, by process of elimination, focuses the attention on SAPA INCA, the tough filly at the top of the racecard. Top weight doesn't make it easy but the filly has sterling battling qualities and if she handles the ground, she can make the long journey down from her Middleham base very worthwhile.
  1. Sapa Inca
