Forecasts

Pivot Bridge (8/11), Stonecoldsoba (11/2), Macksville (8/1), Dream Serenade (12/1), Hollywood All Star (12/1), Captain Swift (14/1), Gambol (14/1), Iona Island (20/1), Topaling (20/1), Dynamo (33/1), Earthwindorfire (50/1), Qibtee (66/1), Yul Finegold (66/1)

Verdict

With little weight and Luke Morris on board, Dream Serenade is expected to once again be there or thereabouts, but the vote goes to in-form Jeremy Gask's MACKSVILLE who has given every indication that this step up in trip could be just the ticket. The big danger could be recent C&D winner Pivot Bridge, but he has plenty of weight and might find this tougher than when romping home last week. It's a similar story for Captain Swift, another to seriously consider in an interesting staying handicap. 1. Macksville 2. Pivot Bridge 3. Dream Serenade
