Verdict

MR SMITH has done no wrong this year with three wins from his three appearances across both codes. He is back to the Flat here following his latest success over hurdles and he can continue his run of victories off this winnable mark. Cristal Spirit has been really close to his second win this year and should once again be fighting it out at the finish of the race, while take Colwood to fill the placings as he has been running consistently well recently without success.
  1. Mr Smith
  2. Cristal Spirit
  3. Colwood
