Verdict
ENNISTOWN may not find it easy giving 10lb to the inconsistent Candy Burg and King Alfonso on going that is probably softer than ideal but should just about manage it with Rex Dingle claiming his allowance. The veteran Spock will be hoping for a miracle but usually plods around in his own time.
