Verdict

DIXIE HIGHWAY has been running well over hurdles and can go one better than when finishing runner-up on his latest start in this sphere. Viking Hoard impressed when winning last time out and can finish runner-up while third can go the way of Mysloegin who has a leading jockey on board having won a maiden contest last time.
  1. Dixie Highway
  2. Viking Hoard
  3. Mysloegin
