Verdict

D HOPPER won over C&D when dropping in class and could follow up despite a disappointing effort the last time out. Tun Tavern finished second at Charles Town last time and Malibu Knight won over C&D previously.

Top Tip: D Hopper (1)
Watch out for: Tun Tavern (9)

Verdict

OVERNIGHT POW WOW won impressively the last time out and looks the one to beat with her strong course record. Double Spirit won well over C&D recently and Bellofthebluegrass also merits consideration.
