Verdict

Richard Fahey has won this race for the past two years and his RED BALLOONS is taken to make it three in a row and step up on her Thirsk debut. No Lippy has been in good form already winning a couple of races but does have to bounce back from a disappointing York run last time. Mayson Mac was a winner here on debut but he is on a recovery mission while Aloysius Lilius is expected to take another step forward despite an awkward draw. Happy Harmony is a rare Hannon runner at the track; she makes her debut in receipt of weight but would need some market support to be of interest.
