Verdict

SHOWTIME MAHOMES has slipped in the weights and didn't enjoy the rub of the green at Ripon last time so this C&D winner looks the way to go. Recent Catterick scorer Vince Le Prince is feared most under a 5 lb penalty ahead of Carlton And Co, Code Purple and Braes of Doune.

  1. SHOWTIME MAHOMES
  2. VINCE LE PRINCE
  3. CARLTON AND CO
