Equus Millar didn't jump well but was almost upsides the winner when falling at the last at Bangor last month and is a danger to all with a clear round. The Real Snoopy looks a chaser in the making but has each-way claims and Patgary won a point at Tyrella in March while Motueka has been improving with experience. LANDIN was highly tried after placed efforts at Warwick at the start of the year. A mark of 127 may flatter him slightly but he sets a decent standard.
