Don't be surprised if busy handicapper bounces back with a big run
No. 1
Aquarium
1pt win at 12-1 generallyAquarium is a typical Mark Johnston three-year-old in that he's run loads of times this year (16) and there has been plenty good and some bad.
He has finished last or nearly last on four of his outings, including last time at York when 15th of 17, but has also won four times and he was on career-best form when splitting two well-backed rivals at Ripon on his penultimate outing.
You could argue he's not one to trust, but he's on offer at a double-figure price in a race he's definitely handicapped to win and I think it's a risk worth taking.
