In depth

Verdict

A competitive field goes to post for this sprint handicap and many have chances on there best form. However the main protagonists appear to be Pay's D'Amour, Risk Free and Bannister, and we will take a chance on Bannister. The gelding from the Dandy Nicholl's yard is thrown in on his best form and he shaped as if his turn was not far away when a staying on second behind Sharp Hat and with Tony Cullhane taking the ride he will be hard to beat. His stable companion Pay's D' Amour rates the main danger but he gave the impression that the handicapper had caught up with him when he was fourth behind Raphael. Risk Free is in the form of his life at the moment and his latest win over Summer Shades gives him every chance. However he will find this tougher off this higher mark. Desraya is another worthy of consideration he has a good draw and he was a good third behind Sholto last time out. Efidium is another that could go well but he got loose before the start last time and had to be withdrawn if he has no ill effects he could go well with his usual rider Suzanne Franks taking the ride. Of the remainder Ballybunion could also go well but he never runs two races the same. Jedeydd is another on a fair mark and he could go well at a big price.
