Shepherds Way²⁹

Weight: 9-2| Age: 3

T: Miss J A Camacho J: C Lee

Forecasts

Intrinsic Bond (7/2), Shepherds Way (9/2), Abate (11/2), Ey Up Its Mick (6/1), Fantasy Keeper (6/1), Our Little Pony (17/2), Wrenthorpe (9/1), Saras Hope (10/1), Afandem (11/1), Tom Tulliver (18/1), Wade's Magic (25/1), Manshood (25/1), Van Gerwen (28/1), Silver Sniper (50/1)

A case can be made for a few here but much the most persuasive one is for SHEPHERDS WAY who is thriving for Julie Camacho and fancied to complete her hat-trick after two ready wins at Haydock. Fantasy Keeper has had a light campaign thus far so is feared most after his recent Haydock third, while in-form Afandem is another well worth a second look.
