Prophet's Corner (5/2), Duffys Hodey (5/2), Misty Milan (4/1), Rue Taylor (7/1), I Ballyadam Moon (12/1), Apples In Winter (16/1), Churchwarden (16/1), Folly Beach (16/1), Look Dont Touch (22/1)

Verdict

DUFFYS HODEY is in the form of his life, and he may find enough improvement over this longer trip to defy the handicapper once again. Misty Milan was well backed when a promising fifth on her reappearance and it would be no surprise to see her go close, while Rue Taylor looks interesting on her handicap hurdle debut.
