Verdict
Nollyador is improving with experience and Everyonesgame was just beaten between the flags in November. Our Marty was second over a shorter trip here in the same month while Punta Prima was hampered when a staying-on fifth at Sedgefield. Smugglers Cliff and JONJONTHEGINGESSON are both half-brothers to bumper and hurdles winners with the latter just preferred. Hurricane Le Dun and Bashers Reflection are other newcomers to consider in an open-looking finale.
