York - 15:10 Kings Apostle
Equiano doesn't look the same horse he did for MDS early last year - may be many reasons for this and I have my own theory on it, he's not a 6f horse either.
The race seems to me to be chock full of 5f sprinters - Tax Free, Equiano etc. and one of the few who has CD winning form, winning form on the ground, at the trip, in the grade and under the jockey is Kings Apostle. I realise he is carrying a penalty but that aside I don't really see any negatives to him and at a max of 16/1 at the moment he's well worth a bet.
Advice: 1pt each way Kings Apostle @ 16/1 (Ladbrokes)
