Forecasts

Serefeli (9/4), Ruby Gates (3/1), Tropic Thunder (6/1), Carvelas (7/1), Mosman (8/1), War Goddess (12/1), Alterno (12/1), Coach Bombay (16/1), Any Time (16/1), Trump Card (16/1), Gold Struck (20/1), El Tren (20/1), Gun Shoot (20/1), Tommy Welsh (25/1), Havelock Ellis (25/1), Cosmic Symbol (25/1), Gramercy Park (66/1)

Verdict

Typically tough finale for the track and there will be plenty with chances when heads turn for home. Carvelas was off the course a long time but ran well here seven days ago to build on his reappearance run, he should go well again. Mosman surprised many when going very close three weeks ago, his best effort for some time but there's no assurances he'll be in the same mood. Tropic Thunder is one of two for his trainer and his Flat form makes him intriguing having disappointed over jumps. WAR GODDESS and Alterno were close-up in a maiden here 21 days ago and both have claims for this handicap debut, with the former just getting the nod to confirm the placings and land the spoils. 1. War Goddess 2. Alterno 3. Carvelas
