Fiendishly tricky race to end the card, as any number can make the running, which only conspires to cloud the picture. However, SPIN TOP may have needed the run last time and, given that he seems to have thrived since switching yards, he could be the one to benefit the among those scrimmaging up front. Entertaining Ben and Roundabout Magic can also sit handy enough to pounce in the closing stages, so also merit consideration, while Red Stripes is still well handicapped and would also be dangerous to ignore.
