Racing Post verdict
Third-partyFirst Folio is clearly the one to beat on our figures for this big 19-runner Class 4 sprint at York, with a comfortable margin over the chasing pack and today's trip and going both proven. Juan Les Pins and Almarada Prince look the most obvious dangers, while Wreck It Ryley ranks next on our figures and commands respect too. Confidence is only medium in such a large, competitive field, but First Folio's figures make him the pick.
