Verdict

DINNIE'S VINNIE has been in good from of late and he can complete a hat-trick by taking this valuable contest on his first try at this distance. The selection races off a mark 6lb higher than for his most recent victory and can get the better of last years runner-up and today's top weight Tulsa Jack while Poormans Hill, who was in great former earlier in the season is taken to finish third.
  1. Dinnie's Vinnie
  2. Tulsa Jack
  3. Poormans Hill
