It looks best to side with SICARIO, who arrives in search of his hat-trick having notched back-to-back successes at Wolverhampton and Southwell. Michael Appleby’s gelding must concede weight to all of his rivals, but that might not stop him. Sausalito failed to land a blow having been well supported on his return from an absence at Southwell two weeks ago, but a first-time visor could hold the key. Glencoe Boy is another to consider SICARIO Sausalito

PLAY SMARTER

SICARIO arrives on the back of a success at Southwell and should be able to go in again in a weak race. Fast Flo could pose the main threat unless Sausalito bounces back.
