Verdict
Balkalin has faced some stiff tasks since winning at Kelso in May. Dakota Beat came right back to form at Bangor last month and is only 3lb higher while the in-form My Gift To You is one of only two booked rides for regular partner Harry Cobden. HAVEYOUGOTMYMONEY was placed in a point at the start of his career so a first try over 3m under Rules may well suit. He’s had wind surgery since a third at Worcester in June and could be the answer to this if the operation has had the desired effect.
