We saidWon at 7/2
MACANUDO 15/2
Only one confirmed front-runner, and this is a track where that matters — front-runners here win 2.3 times their share of these races. An uncontested lead could be decisive.
MACANUDO at 15/2, Ian Williams and Billy Loughnane, gets the vote, and it is the kind of race we wait for. He has had 2 of his last 4 starts on the wrong trip, back to 5f today where he wins and his mark is 8lb lower for it and has the right side of the draw.
The one worry is weakened last time.
The dangers are DORALEE at 11/2 (won last time) and MASTER DANDY at 5/1 (a course winner).
