A really competitive dash to conclude the action and there are no shortage of solid candidates. The vote goes to Irish raider ONLY SPOOFING who has been profitable to follow when crossing the Irish Sea and after two more good efforts the last twice he remains one to be on the right side of. Also improving and profitable to follow has been Mountain Peak and this C&D winner showed this new career high mark was within his compass latest when second. Big Lachie is another who comes here in good form and he too looks sure to go well.
