Verdict

It often pays to be wary of eye-catching (unlucky) fast finishers, and there are a couple of horses in this race who fit that profile. Both Prestbury Park and PLENTYINTHETANKSIR were a shade unfortunate some sixty or so miles apart on the same day last week at Catterick and Newcastle respectively. The inexperienced George Bass picked up a 10-day ban for setting his mount too much to do on the Tapeta, and whilst this wide draw isn't ideal, given his hold up run style there's every likelihood that a low draw wouldn't have suited either. However, this 3yo appeals as an ultra progressive horse who can overcome such an obstacle. Critical Thinking is also noteworthy.
  1. Plentyinthetanksir
