Verdict

Avoncreek, Wiltshire and Greek Secret make most appeal in this apprentice handicap to open the card and the vote is given to Wiltshire. The selection arrives here in good form and he was only narrowly beaten behind Avontuur last time. He travelled like the winner for much of that race but he has a top apprentice booked today and a decent draw so he can gain his compensation. Avoncreek won last time out but he was all-out to score that day and his overall strike-rate suggests that he is unlikely to replicate that winning effort tonight. Greek Secret is a course and distance winner and he has been showing a decent level of consistency; he is another with a good high draw so he looks to hold solid each-way prospects. Jim Goldie has his string in decent form at present, so it would be no surprise to see Lambency go well at a price, but in an open event we will side with Wiltshire as the pick.
