Newyorkstateofmind heads this competitive Class 6 sprint at Thirsk narrowly ahead of Mister Sky Blue on identical ratings, with the pair pulling a few pounds clear of the rest of the field. Mister Sky Blue represents the most obvious threat, closely matched on paper, while Golden Prosperity and Hurstwood will need to find improvement if they are to get involved. The ground should pose no issues, and on balance of form Newyorkstateofmind merits preference in what is an open contest. **Newyorkstateofmind** is our selection.
