A highly competitive finale to the card in which a couple of the three-year-olds look to have solid claims. Clubbable arrives in a belated hat-trick bid after winning on her return and she's not necessarily the yard's second string with Richard Fahey's stable jockey unlikely to be able to do such a low weight. However, it's GALLOWAY HILLS who is narrowly preferred after two promising runs on turf and the step up in trip looks certain to suit. Stablemate Ripp Orf will be hard to keep out of the first three if he handles the track while that won't be an issue for Juanito Chico who has a course and distance win to his name and can't be ruled out.
