Sackett (11/8), Polydora (5/2), Dadsintrouble (3/1), Waikiki Waves (4/1), Nightline (15/2), Mine's A Pint (8/1), Looks Like Power (10/1), Danboru (11/1)

Verdict

SACKETT capitalised on the handicapper's mercy when scoring at Fakenham last month, and although that race rather fell apart, he should still be competitive at this level off his revised mark. Waikiki Waves is a big danger with conditions to suit.

  1. SACKETT
