Verdict

The expectation of soft conditions will hinder the chances of many in this. Hajjam will have little difficulty with the ground and his powerful yard are showing signs of getting into full swing. Stable companion Waarif can give a good account, but a chance is taken with CLUB WEXFORD. The Irish import handles the conditions, goes well fresh and this is his optimum trip. His handicap mark looks attractive and the stable are having a good year
  1. Club Wexford
