2020 TED VAN HEEMST STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Trap For Fools will take up the lead and then it's a matter of what pressure is put on him. Saucy Jack and Arctic Stream can be handy. TRULY GREAT (2) beat a star when winning the G1 Kingston Town last time and is already proven at the extra trip. Suited at WFA and is clearly the horse to beat.

TRAP FOR FOOLS (1) got complete control when winning the Towton Cup last week and if he gets any favours in front here he can take running down. PADDY'S SHADOW (8) is racing well without winning and while a win would be an upset he's entitled to strong consideration for a place. Next best ARCTIC STREAM (5) and PLATOON (4).
