Verdict

Although not as race fit as some of his rivals a chance is taken on CRACKER JAK who ended last season with two wins to look a highly progressive five-year-old. There could easily be more to come so he is worth following again early this season. Others with chances include Another Frontier who is best caught it seems first time out and Very Extravagant who will be staying on when others have cried enough.
  1. Cracker Jak
  2. Another Frontier
  3. Very Extravagant
