“Away smartly - handy early - up to the front 2f out - battled on strongly through the final furlong but the margin narrowed near the line”

I'm Spartacus is our selection, holding the narrowest of edges at the top of a well-stocked 21-runner field, rated just a pound ahead of Rosato. Heart Of Eternity and Billboa also feature among the leading dangers, with barely a handful of pounds covering the first four on our figures. It is an open-looking heat in truth, and confidence in the pick is low given how tightly this bunches. I'm Spartacus nonetheless gets the vote as the narrow form pick in a competitive field.
