In depth
Verdict
A high draw is a bonus here and Castle River is well positioned in stall 11. He gained his only success to date over this course, and he can prove too strong for his rivals. Escalade would not be without a chance at his best, neither would Basinet, who after a break, has turned in two sound efforts recently. Some Will, who has yet to win beyond six-furlongs, has been done no favours by the draw.
