Verdict

Little between the principals on form but RUBYS REWARD comes here at the top of her game so edges the vote off just a 1 lb higher mark than her excellent recent Worcester second. Bensini is also weighted to have a big say ahead, with in-form pair Jack The Farmer and Danzini also in the mix.

  1. RUBYS REWARD
  2. BENSINI
  3. JACK THE FARMER
