Let's Twist Again (9/4), Presentingoscar (11/2), After Aspen (6/1), Seskinane (7/1), No Pressure Pat (8/1), Apache Jack (10/1), Isodon (12/1), Ben Brody (16/1), Gold Smoke (16/1), Canaly (20/1), Capture The Drama (20/1), Hes Our Vinnie (20/1), Nicat's Benefit (25/1), Cherif De L'Isle (33/1)

Verdict

LET'S TWIST AGAIN already holds a number of these on recent evidence and, while he will hit the buffers at some point, his profile stands out as the most reliable option from this modest bunch of rivals. After Aspen is better off at the weights with the selection on this occasion and makes more appeal as a potential party pooper than No Pressure Pat, who is in great heart just now but the handicapper possibly has him where he wants him to be just now.
  1. Let's Twist Again
  2. After Aspen
  3. No Pressure Pat
