Verdict

Plenty in with a shout and it could just be worth chancing BLIND BEGGAR. A winner on debut for Mick Appleby in December, he failed to match that level at Newcastle since but a first-time visor could just put an edge on him back at 5f and he remains on a workable mark. Lingfield scorer Mick's Spirit and Dusky Prince head up the dangers.

  1. BLIND BEGGAR (IRE)
  2. MICK'S SPIRIT
  3. DUSKY PRINCE (IRE)
