DESERT LAW 20-1 e.w. betfair.
Run twice in this before, 1st and 2nd, seemingly loving the track, both impressive runs, worst draw when 2nd. H'cap mark dropped since last year, rated 89 on seasonal debut winning condition race easily, beating higher rated opponents. Up to 94 now but still looks well h'capped.
Think I recall he was gambled on last year but non-runner on the day, bruised foot.

DUKE OF FIRENZE for me. Won very nicely last time. Has won this in the past. Back to his best for the yard in my opinion. A class act. ( 8/1 b365)
Agree with Facts here,nice draw would help but this race sets up perfectly for the Duke!!
Facts, 20's was always gonna be too big if he made the race, 8-1 looks about right. The ground's come right for both ours. I wouldn't want mine challenging to the left of El Astronaute who likes to drift that way, could take out half the field.
Perhaps BHA could ban him?

DUKE OF FIRENZE for me. Won very well last time. Has won this in the past and ran well other time. got on at 16/1 before last win
KIMBERELLA for me... better horse this season .... a lot more consistent... claimer taking 7lb off ...
Good luck!
Good luck!
Hey Facts ! Nice to hear from you ... like these antepost thread ... think OP did well ... good value....
Also agree with comments about Duke Of Firenze - must be on shortlist .. but reckon 10s the field come Sat...

Blithe Spirit is a pocket rocket and could lead them here and possibly hang on for a place or even better. Very unlucky not to place in this last year (5th) and now a whopping 6lb lower in the handicap. Perfect draw and massively overpriced at 40/1. Targetted at the race.
Sorry, it is an early closing race so Blithe Spirit has to run off her old hcap mark from start of May (90). albeit Hollie takes 3lb off.
Caspian Prince electric early pace ran well last week @ York 5th
Beat Kimberella (and Caspian now a stone better off) and Duke Of Firenze(and Caspian now 9lbs better off) into 2nd and 3rd in this last year
Downside drawn 1

Impossible race but will have minor six place interest in Union Rose and Olivia Fallow.
What a race. Well done Geoff 25-1 wow. Desert Law run well but no excuses. Duke Of Firenze great run, close. Dark Shot the unlucky one.
