Missus Molly Brown gets the confident vote in this competitive finale with Dilwin and Fly So Free rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind Mambomoon last time out and he will handle the cut in the ground. He races off the same mark here and looks the one to be on. Dilwin rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Record Breaker but he looks to have plenty of weight for what he has actually achieved and he is taken on with this in mind. Fly So Free is another worthy of respect on his best form but the suspicion is he may just need the run after a 329-day break. Inspainagain is another that could go well on his latest fourth behind Tombi but the drop in trip is a concern. Wolfman has had plenty of chances but has place claims on his best form and is another that should go on the ground, but in a race where few can be fancied Missus Molly Brown looks the most reliable option.
