FormscanBy Tom Weekes - AFFORDALE FURY’s four lifetime wins have come just in maiden races but he is a smart performer and has returned to his best this season. Runner-up at 150/1 in the 2023 Albert Bartlett, he missed 438 days prior to returning for only one run last term and, this season, has run two solid races. He chased home Envoi Allen at Grade 1-level at Down Royal and is the clear pick on today’s adjusted-ratings. Appreciate It, winner of the 2021 Supreme Novices Hurdle, rolled back the years to beat stablemate and today’s rival Classic Getaway here in January and while age isn’t on his side, might confirm those placings and he is Paul Townend’s pick.
