Verdict

This is one of those typically competitive sprints here and it is hard to dismiss any. RED PIKE has been hit hard by the handicapper for his Ripon second, but if that signals he is back in peak condition then he can still land this from a mark which is below that for his best efforts of last term. Classsic Seniority is feared at this level and with this rider on board, whilst Related represents a yard in form and has scored twice under Martin Lane this year.
