Verdict

A good handicap sprint can go to the unexposed and progressive four-year-old ROYAL PROSPECT who won nicley here last time and there could be more to follow. Wentworth Falls deserves a win and again ran well at York a few days ago. He'll be finishing better than anything but often gives himself too much to do. Muscika will appreciate the return to this trip after being taken off his feet over 5f last time in a hot race and should be thereabouts, as too should Pennsylvania Dutch and Moon Trouble.
  1. Royal Prospect
  2. Wentworth Falls
  3. Muscika
