Verdict

Plenty with chances on the closing race of day two but FUJAIRA PRINCE is the one that catches the eye. He was a good third at this meeting when last seen and he ought to relish this step up in trip. Ranch Hand is another progressive sort but Alright Sunshine could be the main danger with a run under his belt already.
  1. Fujaira Prince
  2. Alright Sunshine
  3. Ranch Hand
