Verdict

Trainer Evan Williams saddles 10 runners at this meeting today and can prepare a winner in the shape of THE GIPPER. The 10-year-old son of King's Theatre can get off the mark at the eighth time of asking for connections at the expense of the Phillip Hobbs-trained Keep Wondering on chasing introduction here. Veterans, Driftwood Haze and Bonne Question can both give a good account while the Tim Vaughan-trained Twasn't The Plan should not be taken lightly.
  1. The Gipper
