Verdict
COLONEL LESLEY has changed hands again since fourth here in July but Beau Morgan takes off 5lb and he probably has as good a chance as any in a finale containing more quantity than quality. Rock On Tommy was in good form here over the summer but has climbed the ratings as a consequence. Moonshine Spirit is 0-7 and shoulders top weight but has placed the last twice and Robber's Bridge has made the frame in his last three. Weaver's Answer and Luna Dora may be best of the rest.
