Otis B Driftwood gets the confident vote to win this seller with Baytown Lulu and Gymbolini rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair ninth behind Verite last time out. This represents a massive drop in class and he need only run up to that mark to win this. Baytown Lulu rates the main danger on her latest third behind Gee Four but she looked a short runner on that occasion and at likely odds he looks worth opposing. Gymbolini is another worthy of respect on her best form but the first time tongue strap will need to improve her dramatically if she is to score. Of the remainder Song Huntress is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but she looks vulnerable to a less exposed type and for the winner we return to Otis B Driftwood .
