Verdict

The vote goes to GALAHAD THREEPWOOD, who was in the process of mounting a strong challenge when unseating his rider 3 out in the C&D handicap won by Good Bye in January. He almost certainly would have finished ahead of the eventual third, the re-opposing Fringill Dike, had he completed and is very appealing off the same mark. Prairie Wolf has raised his game considerably with cheekpieces enlisted the last twice and looks a big threat, while Irish raider Bentham also needs a second look.
