Cross Country P5 starts here..
If Rhyme Schemes runs back to Ellis MDN-breaker he’ll win, but this appears trickier than it looks. There are 5 speeds lining up, with Lasso the lone exception, and there’s no telling who might survive a pace battle. Woodcourt was able to negotiate a diploma from an inside trip at Ellis against a next out Lobo winner and may be the presser best able to adjust to the front end fracas..
