---|---|---|---|---|
Dark Harmony should spear straight to the front of the small field. JABBAWOCKEEZ (2) is at his best with the sting out of the ground, which he's unlikely to get, but has the class to be a factor even on a Good track. EL JAMES (5) is a progressive type who has been aggressively placed, which looks to be a good push from the stable that he has come back well. ANGRY SKIES (3) is much better than recent runs but needs to be taken on trust. DARK HARMONY (6) the best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Jabbawockeez.
