Verdict
Versicium would win this easily on his best form but he appears to have his own ideas about the game and is readily passed over. Hoh No will love the ground and is well in on his best form and if he puts his best foot forward he will be hard to beat. Last Try is from a stable which is just hitting form and he to could go well off his feather weight.
