Take The Helm (9/2), Honiara (6/1), Shyron (6/1), Twin Point (6/1), The Warrior (8/1), Joey's Destiny (8/1), Valbchek (8/1), Fiftyshadesofgrey (12/1), Firmdecisions (14/1), Shypen (16/1), Lexington Times (16/1), Fire Diamond (20/1), Young John (20/1)
Twin Point is nicely berthed to take advantage of an easy lead and that could see him establish a good track position. Joey’s Destiny is another type who looks on a handy mark but he does need everything to drop right and it could be that his stablemate Fiftyshadesofgrey who holds the better chance of the George Baker duo. TAKE THE HELM presents the most compelling case overall though with the draw looking more favourable this time around and after three places over C&D he may well be able to gain the elusive victory in what is a tough handicap.
1. Take The Helm
2. Fiftyshadesofgrey
