Forecasts

Saint Cajetan (5/4), Episode (15/8), Cafe Au Lait (5/1), The Wise One (7/1), Parc Des Princes (10/1), Maximus Maridius (11/1), Mcvicar (12/1), Road To Rome (16/1), Border Victor (33/1)

Verdict

SAINT CAJETAN drops in grade here having contested a 0-120 handicap when last seen in action here at the end of January. The selection put in a solid effort on that occasion and with his trainer in decent form at present with a 25% strike rate from eight runners in recent times he can defy top weight under a leading jockey. Recent winner Cafe Au Lait failed to defy a penalty earlier this week and can claim second placing here while recent course winner Episode is taken to finish third in the concluding event on the card. 1. Saint Cajetan 2. Cafe Au Lait 3. Episode
