Rampage,Alchemist Master and Munaawashat look the three to concentrate on in the finale and the vote is given to Rampage. The selection won well last time out when beating Misaro and although he has a penalty for that win the step up in trip is sure to bring about some improvement and from a good draw he will be hard to beat. Alchemist Master rates the main danger as he is well weighted here compared to turf but it is hard to know if he will act on the surface and for that reason he is opposed. Munaawashat is another worthy of respect as he is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he gave the impression in was in the handicappers grip when fourth behind Habenero last time. Of the remainder Llamadass could run well at a price off a featherweight but for the winner we return to the progressive and unexposed Rampage.
