Forecasts

Golden Apollo (3/1), Sir Maxi (7/2), Typical Man (4/1), Sir Benedict (11/2), First Greyed (13/2), Shuv H'penny King (7/1), Sharib (22/1), Turbo Command (28/1)

Verdict

GOLDEN APOLLO clearly isn't one for maximum faith but this is the first time he's ever dropped down to a Class 5 handicap and he's worth siding with after shaping quite well in competitive events on his last 2 outings. Sir Benedict won tidily enough at Hamilton last time and is feared most ahead of Shuv H'penny King.

  1. GOLDEN APOLLO
  2. SIR BENEDICT (IRE)
  3. SHUV H'PENNY KING
