As you would expect in a 30 runner sprint handicap this is feverishly difficult with plenty you can make a case for. The vote goes to A LIKELY STORY who has been running consistently well this term and in a race where jockeyship will be of great importance he has the considerable benefit of champion Colin Keane on board. Others near the top of the shortlist are the strong finishing Split The Atom who should enjoy a strong run, stiff 6f, Tush who looks close to a winning mark back to her preferred 6f and the unexposed Bellick who is a rare commodity in this race as one who could improve.
