Gentlemans Could Be The Real Deal With Good Draw

Gentlemans Deal is now the outright favourite for the William Hill Lincoln with the sponsors following the draw that was conducted by George Duffield.

Mick Easterby's all weather specialist was supported and cut to 11-2 outright favourite from 6-1 after being drawn 15 in the 20 runner field.

Other changes by the sponsors included My Paris (12-1 from 16) who was drawn in 19 and Mutawaffer (16-1 from 25) having been drawn 20.

William Hill's spokesman Ben Clarke added: "Gentlemans Deal is something of an all weather specialist but a repeat of his performance in last weeks Winter Derby will make him very hard to beat. The general consensus is that the high drawn horses will be at an advantage on Saturday so being drawn 15 certainly wont hinder his chances and along with My Paris and Mutawaffer is one of a number of horses that have been very well supported after receiving what are perceived to be favourable draws."
