Forecasts

Minella Gathering (6/4), Simply Blessed (3/1), Comical Red (9/2), Eddy (6/1), Quincy Magoo (7/1), Bostin (17/2), Landscape (10/1), General Girling (16/1), Roparta Avenue (20/1)

Verdict

Most of these find winning difficult, so it gives top weight QUINCY MAGOO a decent chance of scoring on just his second handicap start. He looks a thorough stayer, which will help his cause if the expected rain does materialise, and has plenty of improvement to come. The places look up for grabs - perhaps Simply Blessed can do better in the change of headgear, as it's too soon to be writing her off, and Eddy can stay on best of the rest for third. 1. Quincy Magoo 2. Simply Blessed 3. Eddy
