      Verdict

      This looks to be a good opportunity for Xcellence to add to his tally against some very moderate opposition today. Phillip Hobbs has done well with his recruits from the Flat and, although Xcellence is not the most straightforward of characters, he should have too much speed for his rivals today. Golden Rod and Musally can fight it out in the event of any mishaps.
