Ace Club,Princess Arwen and Wodhill Be look the three to concentrate on in another tough race to call for punters and the vote is given to Princess Arwen The selection won well last time out when beating Ginger Cookie and although she has a penalty for that win she won with a little in hand and under similar conditions here she is taken to win again. Ace Club rates the main danger as she also won well last time out when beating Jacks Delight but she will do well to give weight and a beating to the selection and for that reason she looks worth opposing. Wodhill Be is another that could go well on her best form but she has been well beaten off this mark of late so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Free Wheelin has the ability to go close but does not like to use it and for the winner we return to Princess Awen.
