In depth
Verdict
Another open affair for punters to fathom with some unexposed types in the field but the main protagonist appear to be White Hawk, Rise and Park Ave Princess and we will take a chance on White Hawk. The colt from the David Loder yard was a good second behind Imperial Stride last time and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. Rise rates the main danger he was a good second behind Borzoi Maestro last time and that form has since ben franked so he has definite place claims. Park Ave Princess won a claimer with plenty in hand last time out and although this is a tougher assignment she won in the style of an improver and could go well. Of the remainder Jiffies Flyer is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but we are happy to side with White Hawk.
