Verdict

ALFREDO ARCANO has been a little below form on his last couple of efforts but there's a suspicion he's still on a good mark and this contest may not take a whole lot of winning. Little Miss Willow was impressive earlier in the week but this may come to soon while Zeeyalater ran okay last time out and may prove best of the rest.
  1. Alfredo Arcano
  2. Little Miss Willow
  3. Zeeyalater
