Racing Post verdict
Third-partyAstro King heads this 13-runner Class 2 contest at Southwell on figures that put him narrowly ahead of French Duke and Spinning Wheel, with the trio representing the chief interest at the top of the pile. The concern is that his rating advantage over French Duke and Spinning Wheel amounts to only nine pounds across the field, and over those two immediate dangers the gap is modest enough to leave the outcome genuinely open. El Burhan also warrants respect as the next in line and cannot be dismissed on a sound surface over eleven furlongs. On balance, Astro King's superior figures make him the call, though this is far from a clearcut assignment. **Astro King** is our selection.
