Verdict
HILLBILLY BOY looks flattered by his current mark but has little to beat in this and can return to winning ways. Finaz has every chance at the weights but hasn't raced since November and headgear is applied for the first time on his reappearance. Maypole Joe scored over track and trip last month and has claims on that form despite being well beaten since but the remainder have it all to do on today's terms and are easily dismissed.
