George Bowen To Govern At York
Did well to win a strong handicap after a 6-month layoff and Richard Fahey has won the race three times in seven years.
The 4.20 York is a competitive handicap where several of the field will be ahead of their handicap marks.
A case can be made for several of these but at the prices, I like the chances of George Bowen.
He did extremely well to win a red-hot handicap on the all-weather on his first start in six months. Held-up behind an even gallop, he overhauled the leaders by running a rapid 23s closing sectional.
He earned an impressive 87 Topspeed rating and was better than the narrow margin of victory.
After the race, Tony Hamilton intimated he would be better at 7f - the trip he runs over today.
Richard Fahey has won three of the last seven editions of this race and George Bowen can add to the tally at 14/1 (William Hill).
