The draw has been kind to PILLAR, who has come to hand at the right time for this and may be hard to peg back if he can nab a handy position on the stands rail. Town Ranger may have a little more to offer after she posted an encouraging effort behind the selection last time out and could represent good value to make the frame, while Mo Henry can play hand at this level and, like Adelena, doesn't have much to find to get competitive in this company.
