DON’T ACT UP may be the answer to a modest finale as he’s shown steady improvement in three runs in novice events, though would probably still benefit from a step up in trip. Both of Cougar Kid’s wins have come over longer trips and he has a penalty for the latest of those at Hereford while Lost In Newyork has a long absence to overcome. Kalaskadesemilley needs more and so does Does It In Style, though any market support would be significant.
