Verdict

If the market doesn’t signal any positive intent for French import Diaboleo who has joined Ian Williams yard then this can be boiled down to three protagonists. Invictus Spirit and TWO BIDS have past history having met at Windsor with the latter coming out on top although he did have experience on his side and it could well be close between the pair again. Since then the Haggas representative has been tried over further but he pulled too hard to get home; a positive ride around here over shorter may be the key to him. Mayne has to enter the equation given how well his yard do at this venue but it remains to be seen how well he acts on turf having had two AW starts so far.
  1. Two Bids
  2. Invictus Spirit
  3. Mayne
