Verdict

No shortage of pace on here, with Speredek looking to put these to the sword from the start. He could make all, despite the welter burden to carry, and should not be dismissed lightly. His old rival Caid Du Lin will appreciate a good pace to come off but he's not the only one, and the fast-improving CAP ST VINCENT is taken to pick them off late from his feather weight. He looked good when successful at Exeter and should have more in the tank. The Last Day is an unexposed sort that won't mind any more rain, and the Evan Williams yard are going well, so should be given consideration too.
  1. Cap St Vincent
