Verdict
While SO SMART's record on the all-weather doesn't augur particularly well, these waters are calmer than those that he usually finds himself in and the 5-y-o is taken to emerge on top. Bernard Spierpoint is proving fairly consistent and is likely to give another good account, while So Grateful will have claims if on-song, a remark which also applies to Snow Berry.
