A wide open contest rounds off the card and many have chances but the main protagonists look to be Deo Gratias, Dizzy Future and Brasilia Prince and the vote is given to Deo Gratis. The selection is on a handy mark and was a fair fourth behind Jackie Boy last time out. He has conditions that suit and he looks a value bet in an open affair. Dizzy Future rates the main danger as he won well last time when beating Who Dares Wins. He escapes a penalty for that win as it was a conditiional jockeys race and under similar conditions he will not be far away. Brasilia Prince is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Jackie Boy but he is worse off with the selection here and for that reason he is opposed. Darren Boy was a fair third behind Montevideo last time and is another with place claims but consistency is not his strong point. Memories Of Gold is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but she is hard to with and in a race where few can be ruled out for the winner we return to Deo Gratis to small stakes.
