Haadef gets the confident vote here with Arjay and Wyn Dixie rating the main dangers. The selection showed improved form when fourth behind Muckle Flugga last time out and with the return to this trip looking in his favour he looks the one to be on. Arjay rates a big danger as he was a fair second last time out behind He's Hot Right Now but that form has since been let down and in what looks a competitive affair he looks worth taking on. Wyn Dixie is another worthy of respect on his latest third behind Lofty Leader but he looks to have plenty of weight for what he has actually archived. What's A filly is on a handy mark is from a yard in form and should be noted in the market. Of the remainder Maunby Rocker would have a chance on his best form of a couple of seasons ago but he may just need the run after a 553 day absence and for the winner we return to Haadef.
