Synergism⁷

Weight: 10-1| Age: 3

T: Sir Mark Prescott J: L Morris

Forecasts

Synergism (4/6), Battle Stride (2/1), Crackamour (9/4), Aroof (4/1), Himself (17/2), Tiger Kitten (17/2), Advertorial (14/1), Call Me Audrey (28/1)

As the betting ahead of his recent reappearance suggested that he might, SYNERGISM took a sizeable step forward when making a winning handicap debut upped to 9.5f here. This further increase in trip will be in his favour and he looks just the type that his ultra-shrewd yard will rack up a sequence with in the coming weeks. Crackamour is probably capable of better than he has shown so far and is the clear pick for forecast purposes ahead of handicap debutant Battle Stride.
