Verdict

Nothing here is rock solid but conditions look ideal for CECIL CORBETT and if he can reproduce his latest effort over this C&D, that might be enough to score. Coldstonesober and Curragh Golan are both into the veteran stage too but both are capable on their day and might be able to complete a clean sweep of the medals for the old boys.
  1. Cecil Corbett
  2. Coldstonesober
  3. Curragh Golan
