Has big claims under these conditions. JUSTADEEL off two runs is near peak fitness, draws ideally to give himself every chance. DETONATOR JACK might need luck from that barrier but will be swooping late. TECHFORM’S TOP 5 1. 13-Storm Leopard 100 2. 9-Justadeel 95 3. 10-Asva 93 4. 2-Detonator Jack 93 5. 8-Suntora 92
