Verdict

It is slightly disconcerting to see TOMMY RAPPER aimed so low after after an inexplicably bad performance last time. However, his previous form puts him on a different level and he should make short work of these if near his best. Miss Adventure has place claims, particularly if brushing up her jumping, whilst Pull Together is a possible surprise package.
  1. Tommy Rapper
  2. Miss Adventure
  3. Pull Together
