Verdict

An ultra-competitive sprint which can go the way of BERNARD SPIERPOINT, who found life much tougher back in handicap company last time but claimer-ridden for the first time under the tutelage of Darryll Holland, he's fancied to add another victory to an already impressive 2023 campaign. Lilkian, Gherkin and Apache Star are just a handful of others worth considering.
