Verdict

Edgar Allan Poe is attempting the same double completed last year by Quoteline Direct having won a lady amateurs' handicap over C&D last time. He is much respected in his current form, as is last year's hero, but TRINITY STAR is handicapped to go well at a track he likes, and has returned to form on his last two starts, so gets the vote in a tricky finale.
  1. Trinity Star
  2. Edgar Allan Poe
  3. Quoteline Direct
