In depth

Verdict

This is a very competitive handicap and we will take a chance with Ganymede, Bienheureux and Bridegroom are also expected to run well. The selection started this current campaign off a rating of 62 and despite some decent enough efforts has now dropped down to a very lenient mark. He appears to be a better horse on the all-weather as he showed when second at Wolverhampton in February and although still a maiden he is the one we like in a wide open event. Bienheureux makes a quick return to the track, having finished well beaten at Newmarket last Saturday. He was a game winner at Southwell the time before and has claims on that running. David Elsworth's Bridegroom is steadily coming to hand and looks the best of the remainder, however Ganymede has been given a great chance by the handicapper and he gets the verdict.
