Quickening ground means staying favourite can be taken on at York

No. 11
Always Resolute
5.00 York
1pt each-way at 11-1 generally

Ben Robinson's form figures on Always Resolute are 12 and the last time he rode him he was sent off at 15-8 to win at Musselburgh off today's mark of 78 and went down by three-quarters of a length.

Late to come back this season, he took a big step up on his returning fourth at Carlisle when third of 12 to Nordic Combined on ground softer than he normally cares for at Haydock last month. Indeed, that was his best ever Flat run on ground without the word 'good' in it, so he should be primed to run a big race on a better surface now, especially going back up in trip.
