15:15 York - MR LUPTON 18/1
1 Point Each-Way
I'll admit there are probably a few more 'solid' options in this sprint handicap, but at odds of 18/1 I'm happy to chance Mr Lupton. He has mainly been contesting listed and group races this season and tends to run well in big field handicaps, as shown by a good run last time out when finishing in the rearranged Ayr Gold Cup (at Haydock), on ground which was probably too soft for him. He has been dropped 3lb for that run which puts him 7lb better off with the second that day, Stake Acclaim, without taking into account apprentice allowances. That puts him two pound below the mark off which he won at Newmarket, back in May of this year. Sprints aren't always my favourite betting medium but he looks worth an each-way bet today.
