Sizzling pace from Discretion Rules, Charm Manhattan and Knowledge Is Power locking horns ahead of Intrepid Girl and Hooray For Harry. HOORAY FOR HARRY (6) has a super course record and is an in-form runner. Drawn well once again and looks the logical winner here no matter how the track comes up. HEY NOW (4) was a good run fresh up for fourth. Improver here and is a quinella and trifecta chance in this field. ANGELS WINGS (9) is a course winner. She can handle all types of footing. Include the mare everywhere in this field drawn the coveted ace. AVITUS (2) is in very good form and has been for a while now. Course proven. Chance here on dry or wet ground importantly. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER (7) resumes in this line-up. Easy trial winner last month. Definite chance here for all bettors. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hooray For Harry and Angels Wings are win wagers.
