Verdict

A wide-open contest in which Voyageofdiscovery is likely to make a bold bid for a hat-trick. He is much respected, along with top weight Bigger And Better and Tennesse Waltz, but AUNTY AUDREY won with authority last time and could well be up to defying an 8lb hike in the weights.
  1. Aunty Audrey
  2. Tennesse Waltz
  3. Voyageofdiscovery
