Only 3 with a chance at this stage in my opinion
It,s A Dundeel
Super Cool
Hvasstan

As always I treat the race as a Bookies Benefit Day and a bit of a giggle.

Hvasstan's trainer Manny Gelagotis very confident, few behind Hvasstan in the Norman Robinson Stakes running on late as well

I think It's a Dundeel wins it personally but there are a couple of value runners I don't mind either with Subiaso and Nisos both representing decent prices I believe.

I like the look of Subiaso myself.

Ho Ho,
Just confirmed my thoughts that these type of races are raffles.
