There wasn't much between LATIN FIVE and Phoenix Star when they met here in September, with the former narrowly prevailing, and they again fought out the finish of another C&D handicap a fortnight ago. Latin Five gained his revenge on that occasion, proving ¾-length too strong for Jessica Macey's charge, and he looks capable of following up off this 4 lb higher mark. Phoenix Star is consistent and should be bang there once again, while Starsong is also accorded respect.
