Verdict
The three top weights will fight this one out including Arnprior, Mount Hillaby and Whitethorn with the vote going to the last named. Whitethorn is receiving eleven pounds from Mount Hillaby and has been in the form of his life at present winning two from three. Those wins came around here and as they say horses for courses. The fact that he has risen in the weights means that this will be tougher but is worth siding with again at his favourite track. Mount Hillaby will be on many peoples short list after his two eye catching seconds but has a lot of weght to give away so will have to be at his very best. Arnprior won on his penultimate start at Hamilton but was disappointing around Ayr in a more competitive race. He will have to be back to his best to win this. So for the winner we return to Whitethorn.
