Requinto great each-way value at around 8-1

Hoof It has been all the rage for the Group 1 Nunthorpe since he produce a scintillating weight-carrying performance to land the Stewards’ Cup at Goodwood.

Despite the fact that he’s taking a jump from handicap company right up to the top echelon of the sport, that effort dictates that he deserves his place at the front of the market and is the one to beat.

But those of us looking for some value will hang onto the fact that his progress this season has come in six-furlong races and he drops back to the minimum trip for the first time in 2011. He has won over today’s trip four times in the past and it shouldn’t be a huge concern but his rivals will be looking to such minor details to get him beaten.
