Cordilla gets the confident vote with King Of The Arctic and Hollow Flight rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out over course and distance when defeating Oliverjohn. That should have done his confidence the world of good and under similar conditions he will be hard to beat. King Of The Arctic rates the main danger as he also won well last time out when beating Burwood Breeze but he will do well to give weight and a beating to the selection. Hollow Flight was well behind the selection last time out and although he is better off at the weights he still has plenty to find. The remainder have shown very little and are readily opposed but for the winner we return to Cordilla.
