Verdict

An ultra-competitive finale and it may pay to side with Richard Fahey's BLIND BEGGAR. He's shaped with plenty of promise on each of his last 2 starts on the Knavesmire, possibly overdoing things on the front end when reeled in only by a couple of seasoned sprinters over 6f latest and a bold bid is anticipated back at 5f. Digital, Showalong and Blackrod head the dangers, along with A Pint Of Bear.
