Verdict

TWOJAYSLAD's Doncaster success came in a much higher grade than this and he's taken to concede weight to this lesser opposition. The unexposed Lessankan and John Groucott pair Happy News and The Toojumpa head the dangers in a race where it's hard to make a compelling case for many.

  1. TWOJAYSLAD
  2. LESSANKAN (GER)
  3. HAPPY NEWS
