Having come up a neck short in the Albert Bartlett on his final novice start, LATEST EXHIBITION took pretty well to fences when landing a C&D contest 18 days ago and is very much the one to beat. Pencilfulloflead surpassed his hurdles form at the first time of asking over the larger obstacles and is second choice.
