THE RESDEV TYKE 12/1
A tricky one to unpick — most of these have barely been seen, so the stable and the booking matter more than the figures.
THE RESDEV TYKE gets the vote at 12/1 for Michael & David Easterby, ridden by Joanna Mason. The market makes it favourite.
The dangers are MERCI MONSIEUR at 5/2 and NASCONDINO at 5/2.
