Hiawatha, Jamaaron and Principal Witness are three against the field in this competitive finale and the vote is given to Hiawatha. The selection was a fair fifth behind Sakenos last time out, that form looks rock solid in the context of this race and with improvement likely and under conditions that suit he looks the one to be on. Jamaaron rates the main danger on his latest third behind Arresting, hr will be suited by this slightly shorter trip and should be noted in the market.Principals Witness is another that could go well he was a fair fourth on his debut behind Sakenos and is sure to improve so should be noted in the market. Of the remainder Olivino was a fair fourth behind Iffy last time and is another worth place claims but he may be seen to better effect ion handicaps and with this in mind for the winner we return to Hiawatha.
