Verdict

A good race with a whole host of admirable Northern handicappers in the line up, perhaps none more so than the fluent fencing winning machine HALCYON DAYS. Life is much tougher for him now as he races from a career high mark, but he continues to deliver the goods and posted a solid comeback at Ayr in late October. The suspicion is that his trainer will pick his races with care this term, but he likes this track and is strongest over 2m. Trust Thomas doesn't always deliver in a finish, and is generally an in-running players dream (travels well), and he looks vulnerable up 5lb for his narrow Musselburgh success, whilst 2016 winner Discoverie is none too appealing these days, so the Brian Hughes ridden Casual Cavalier is the forecast play.
