A low-grade finale, so there's a reluctance to offer a strong opinion as to the likely outcome. Roger Varian saddles the handicap newcomer A Hundred Echoes who certainly can't be labelled as a stable star. The likes of The Bull, Barbarosa and Firsteen are all in reasonable form at present and could feasibly play a constructive role, while the market could hold the necessary clues with regards the returning duo Scandanavian Lady and Midnight in Havana. However in nominating a potential winner, the spotlight shines on the Tracy Waggott-trained AW debutant GHATHANFAR who has the scope to take a race of this nature somewhere along the line.
