Dakota Gold (NAP),

Grand horse who has been in winning form this season taking one of the big sprint handicaps at York.

Trainer Michael Dods in good form. In fact I think he struck yesterday (can't remember what with...).

Dakota is a course and distance winner and he's definitely a worthy favourite.

Odds: 15/8 or you may get 2/1 on Exchanges (that's what I'm aiming for).

Good luck!

Cosmos Raj

Course winner for the in-form duo of David O'Meara and Jason Watson.

The horse is by Iffraaj and stepping up in trip to 10f which seems perfect.

He's on a winning handicap mark of 77 too and trainer and jockey have good stats at the track.

The more I think about it the more I like his chances but as a general 9/1 shot have to advise E/W here.

Good luck!
