Verdict

INFLEXIBLE has been shaping up well this season, making the frame on his last 5 starts, and with cheekpieces applied he could be ready to open his account this time around. Earth King's best effort over fences came at this C&D on Boxing Day and he could be the biggest threat, ahead of Shot Boii.
