The amateurs take centre stage for the finale with CROWN HILL taken to land a deserved victory after a series of consistent efforts this year, He is partnered by the highly proficient Will Biddick and will have no issues with trip or ground. He does have to give weight away all round but is capable of doing so. If putting a poor effort behind him, Lord Topper appeals as the main danger for the Snowden and Fuller combination which regularly does well. The gelding remains open to progression and has gone well here in the past. Amron Kali shaped with promise the last day and enters calculations along with Dotties Dilema who is back from a break. Boss Mans Ladder is in good heart at present and also merits respect after only being beaten just over a length here latest.
