Verdict

One for sprint lovers in a typically competitive York dash. There are endless possibilities, such as Masamah who is definitely best at the minimum trip and performing with credit over the past couple of seasons and Alben Star, arguably unlucky not to land a similarly competitive Newmarket sprint won by Goldream latest when a fast-finishing fourth after receiving a troubled passage. He has a career-high mark to contend with but remains a leading contender. Body And Soul has been plying her trade in higher grade for the most part on recent starts but should be much more at home returned to handicaps and should give a good account along with the consistent but luckless Racy. TAURUS TWINS has been enjoying a golden patch at the age of eight, rattling up a recent hat-trick. This is a tougher test but it would be foolish to write him off on ground he loves in receipt of weight all round.
