Verdict

Having shaped encouragingly on his first run for the Skelton yard at Market Rasen, HUGUENEAU earns the vote with this step up in trip a potentially good move. Hi Riko has been knocking on the door and should pick up a race sooner rather than later, while Begoodtoyourself, who finally got the job done at Carlisle last time, is third choice. Accidental Legend needs to bounce back but he's a C&D winner and will be a threat if able to do so off this reduced mark.

  1. HUGUENEAU (FR)
  2. HI RIKO (FR)
  3. BEGOODTOYOURSELF (IRE)
