LEAPAWAY has won four on end now and remains in fine form. Despite conceding weight all round, this looks another great chance to find the target. The others have it all to do. James Boru has won in the point-to-point fields and may do best while Pac It In has some bumper form to call on but needs to improve over hurdles.
