Verdict

There's lots of chances in an open contest involving some improving three-year-olds. Freerolling had previously been a consistent performer and perhaps this is his grade for now and the drop in class can see a quick return to form. Arigato is also proving reliable and likewise the drop in class could help him break his AW duck. Yusra is another to consider but preference is for DARGEL who returns to his ideal distance and is progressing at a pleasing rate.
  1. Dargel
  2. Freerolling
  3. Arigato
