PLAY SMARTER
A tightly-knit handicap despite the small numbers. HOSTELRY is taken to gain a deserved first success after numerous near misses, her latest Hamilton second looking good form for the grade. Alpine Sierra is feared most on the back of his Hamilton success with few miles still on the clock ahead of in-form Al Qaasim.
