Verdict

WATCHA MATEY has had the form of his 1m win at the Newmarket Craven meeting boosted several times since and can defy the handicapper. Individualism was a lot better than the result in the London Gold Cup last time and is second choice ahead of William Haggas handicap newcomer Highland Spring.

  1. WATCHA MATEY
  2. INDIVIDUALISM
  3. HIGHLAND SPRING
