Paddywack has been given a poor draw today but David Chapman's sprinter is in such good heart at present that you couldn't write him off and he is given the TEAMtalk nod. Lisianski is nominated as the danger. David Arbuthnot's season has not lived up to his usual expectations but this horse is back to his best trip and the handicapper is at least giving him some respite. Dizzy in The Head has plenty of speed but is far from consistent whilst the admirable Flak Jacket is arguably better over six furlongs. Any market support for Undeterred or Texas Gold would be of significant interest.
