Bajan Excell (7/4), Politicise (11/4), Nobel Joshua (7/2), Cafe Con Leche (6/1), Fassbender (14/1), Pretty Fantasy (25/1)

Verdict

This looks a really good opportunity for BAJAN EXCELL to add to his C&D maiden success after a pleasing handicap debut third last time out. The main danger looks Politicise who has improved with each run although Nobel Joshua can still improve at this stage.
  1. Bajan Excell
  2. Politicise
  3. Nobel Joshua
