Verdict
BOBBYOW went close when runner-up in similar company over C&D a fortnight ago and, as that's the best recent form on offer, he gets the vote to go one better here. Metropolitan Chief wasn't far behind him on that occasion and has claims though Flow Chart and Royal Envoy will do well to reverse the form. Little Perisher has posted a couple of better efforts of late and can figure, while Hambleton shouldn't be far away off his current mark.
