Forecasts

Titus Secret (3/1), Deeds Not Words (4/1), Virile (15/2), Bogsnog (8/1), Spellmaker (12/1), Socialites Red (14/1), Multi Quest (14/1), Le Manege Enchante (14/1), Dalalah (14/1), Loumarin (16/1), Keene's Pointe (16/1), Goadby (22/1), Captain Scooby (25/1), Clon Rocket (33/1), Manipura (40/1), Diminutive (40/1), Jazz Legend (40/1)

Verdict

Hard to be dogmatic about the chances of many of these and it just depends how the cards fall. DEEDS NOT WORDS made an encouraging start for his new stable and may be able to take another step forward. Top weight Titus Secret is not out of it despite his soaring handicap mark, while Multi Quest may be in the mix if adapting to turf following her AW exploits.
  1. Deeds Not Words
