Who Else Knew can land this at the expense of Soldershire and Hercules Morse. The selection has been in great winning form of late in points winning his latest race at Cherrybrook last month. His form looks consistent and with the ground looking to be in his favour he ought to take some beating. Soldershire has also won his last two. Most latterly when beating Butchers Bayes by three lengths. Again the form is difficult to assess but the horse is obviously in good heart at present so is therefore short listed. Hercules Morse was having jumping difficulties until winning cheekily last time out when getting the better Milanista by one length at Aldington. He may find the fences here a little bigger than what he is used to and for that reason is to be treated with caution. So for the winner we return to Who Else Knew.
