Verdict

GOOD ANSWER needs to improve on the bare form of his Bath win, but he's going the right way for his patient handler, and the form of that contest has been franked by the runner-up. He is preferred to Vee Man Ten, who is forgiven his last run, and is arguably the pick on his previous second at Ayr. Melrose Way has moved to Paul Midgley ahead of this handicap debut, and is fairly treated on his debut form, so must be noted in the market.
  1. Good Answer
  2. Vee Man Ten
  3. Melrose Way
