Verdict

Plenty to consider in an open race and the one who catches the eye is FLY WEST, who is on a roll and has the services of a top jockey in this sphere. Colorado Doc is a threat if his jumping holds up, while Alfstar, Pride Of Parish and Chosen Lucky have solid credentials.
  1. Fly West
  2. Alfstar
  3. Colorado Doc
