C2.50 Barton Gift 12/1 William Hill

Nico De Bounville is the key here since he has far and away the best record on this horse. The win at Bangor about a year ago showed the horses liking for these extreme trips in soft ground and that was the horses last win and the last time Nico sat on the horse. His booking suggests the horse is expected to run a big race here with conditions in its favour and there's been some early money for it.
