This is anybody's race as Fast Finian and Smalljohn both bid for hat-tricks after recent wins over C&D while Right Result also scored over track and trip earlier this month when just getting the better of the re-opposing Willies Wonder. Roy The Boy scored here before going very close again last time but all of the above are upped in class today. Prime Exhibit has been winning claimers of late but this is tougher so we'll give another chance to EMKANAAT. A C&D winner in July, he's been thereabouts in this grade since and is probably still on a decent mark.
