Going - Good to Firm (Good in places). 
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - It has been much more like it recently from THE COOKSTOWN CAFU, who posted a creditable third at Carlisle last month before finishing fifth in a warm York handicap most last time. He's 1lb lower today and is sure to appreciate the return to a mile. Now could be a good time to exploit that sliding handicap mark, although Zozimus and Al Marmar are also likely to play a hand in proceedings. Casilli should not be underestimated either.
