Verdict

HAVANA PARTY isn't straightforward but was value for a bit extra when successful at Hamilton a fortnight ago and with a good-value claimer taking over, further success may well be forthcoming. Flying Moon and Royal Regent also won last time and they head the opposition.

  1. HAVANA PARTY
  2. FLYING MOON (GER)
  3. ROYAL REGENT
