Verdict
Another wide open contest where the draw may prove very significant with those drawn low to middle likely to have an advantage. Espada has been in the form of his life of late and he should take a deal of beating despite going up the weights. Hurricane Floyd is gradually coming back to form and he to should go close. What A Dancer is holding his form well and he is a must for place pot punters.
