Lammert's crew is the most fancied although at present his bow is on the sick !!st, I hear Rose will be substituted in his place if he ein. not come up to the scratch. This craw in andoubtedly a good combloation and will be hard to beat.

Hendon also has strong craw and will give Lammot a tough race for first place. Sanders has not been out much and I don't fancy this crew wil do mach.
