Verdict

Due To Me, Cumbrian Princess, and A Bit of Fun look the ones to concentrate on in this finale and the vote goes to Due To Me. The selection is one of the least exposed in the field and has plenty of scope for improvement. A reproduction of his latest second behind Haithem would make him hard to beat. Cumbrian Princess rates the main danger as she won well last time when defeating Baytown Flyer but that form has since been let down and for that reason she is passed over on this occasion. A Bit Of Fun is another that could go well as he was a fair second behind Mr Cube last time but although he has definite place claims he will need to improve on that effort to win this. The remainder look very moderate and are readily opposed so for the winner we return to Due To Me.
